Hi Folks
Came across this coin (?) and am trying to identify it. Not sure if it is a coin, token or commemorative. Any info would be appreciated.
Hopefully the photos are clear enough. Thanks for any info.

I believe this to be an Austrian thaler, with Maria Theresa on the obverse.
These coins dated 1780 were restruck until 1984 with minor changes..

It's a bullion coin. A restrike of an Austrian Thaler from 1780. As the real ones are worth a bunch, the Thaler restrikes, as any other bullion coin, are worth around melt. (For this one,around $25). There were only around 25-50 originals and 300 000 000 restrikes made since 1781.

I have one too, bought it for 50 cents!
