If they're crown size then they must be Healers but from the look of them I'd say they're all counterfeits/replicas.

If they were real they would be worth thousands of dollars each. Unfortunately, they are all replica Prussian thalers, I'm afraid. You can see the genuine article here on the NGC database. Genuine thalers weigh over 22 grams.

Do an image search on Google for "Prussia thaler 1707 replica" and you will find many more that are exactly like yours, like this one on ioffer, including the distinctive blobs attached to the tops of many of the letters on the obverse.
Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis

I would not consider these even as Chinese 21StC fakes as they have too much of a copper load in the alloy compositions but are even more inferior to these Chinese modern replicas ... see the copper leaching through in various areas ... WORTHLESS.
