I'm sorry for the bad quality of the image, but my camera couldn't take a sharper pic. It's a coin from Aachen from 1792. Does anyone know how much it is worth? Thanks a lot

I'd grade it less than fine - a US grader might grade it more.

Regardless of grade which is subjective anyway - I can see this making around £5 on ebay - at the most.

I bought a very nice brown UNC/AU example of this coin on ebay for 14 USD 3 months ago. The catalog values can be falsely high for these old German States minors because there are so many different types with only a certain number of people looking for them.

That coin is actually in not that bad shape. I have one that is considerably worse. Full details on that type are a little underwhelming, and someone unfamiliar with it might grade an UNC version as XF (I can post a pic of mine later for comparison). You could maybe get 5 dollars for it because it's not horribly uncommon. Low value German States minors will always bring at least a few dollars.

Before scanning down this post I asked myself:
What would I pay for this? Answer: $5.
Apparently my random number sampler and Krause's agree with each other! THAT IS rare!

Here's one I mentioned before with full details but struck a bit off-center. If you notice the obverses and reverses are different. I have a 1794 and 1759 12 hellers that each look different from all of the others even though they are listed the same in Krause. It seems like each year they made different dies and they all looked a little different. As far as I know the different years and varieties don't vary much in value, but it's interesting to see some of the differences.
