Imag8r Valued Member United States 227 Posts	Posted 05/28/2018 3:05 pm Interesting coin(at least to me)—any way to find the date of this coin?—also what grading would you give it and its value—from what I read the date can be really varied and I would think the older the more valuable—any other fun facts would be great—thanks Report this Post to the Staff

otto Pillar of the Community United States 1326 Posts	Posted 05/28/2018 4:08 pm It appears to be a modern restrike of the 1780 Maria Teresa Thaler. Probably uncirculated. The $15.00 price seems to be in the right ballpark, though more than I would pay. It contains about .75 Troy oz. of silver. Report this Post to the Staff
Imag8r Valued Member United States 227 Posts	Posted 05/28/2018 4:37 pm Yeh, Pretty new to this posting stuff—not sure why pic shows up sideways and have to figure out how to rotate the pic—also why crop if pic not too large—i saw the date on the coin but read every coin is that date and wondered if there is a way to get idea of how old the coin was—have to work on my posting skills Report this Post to the Staff
gg_cu Valued Member Canada 72 Posts	Posted 05/28/2018 4:50 pm I think the little dot thing in the central shield in the reverse arms (see bottom of the center stripe of the Austrian arms in the middle of reverse) identifies this coins as a modern (post 1980s) Vienna restrike. Worth bullion, maybe a bit more in proof conditions or in original packaging. Report this Post to the Staff

Images should be cropped closely to the coin and resized to no more than 800 or so pixels on the longest side. Also make sure your image is oriented right side up. Please, this is very important.

Ths website gives a list of varieties of the Maria Theresa thaler, with pictures of each major variety. Yours is, of course, a modern (20th-21st century) restrike; I would concur that it is the currently-issued variety from the Vienna Mint. Specific page. You can still buy one just like it from the Austrian Mint website for 21 euros. 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 Report this Post to the Staff
