UltraRant Pillar of the Community Norway 1358 Posts	Posted 06/27/2016 03:21 am That's just a few cent over melt value, so that's actually well done! I fully agree that it's a very nice coin to look at. Keep your eyes open for an uncirculated MTT: they're still being produced for what I know (all dated 1780) so it should be possible to get your hands on one for not much more money. And trust me, they're even nicer when uncirculated. Report this Post to the Staff

It was my understanding that it appears as "U" on the originals, and as "V" on the restrikes. Edited by hcmusicguy 06/27/2016 11:52 am Report this Post to the Staff

Anyway, I thought that the appearance of a mint mark below the feet of the eagle was an indication of being a 'genuine' 1780 Thaler: restrikes don't have it. And I don't see it here. EDIT: Here's a link to the site where I learned a lot about the Thalers: http://www.theresia.name/en/svergleich.html Edited by UltraRant 06/27/2016 2:12 pm Report this Post to the Staff
