okiecoiner Pillar of the Community Canada 5590 Posts	Posted 12/09/2018 08:01 am The Maria Theresa thalers have been struck continuously and intermittently since 1781. There are an estimated 800 million of them out there somewhere, so they have almost no numismatic value. Keep it as a nice souveneer and a neat watch. It's worth only the scrap silver price for the coin itself ($10-15) ... but, as a watch, you may get some extra money for it on ebay. Look at the "sold" prices (by clicking on the "advanced search" link upper right)as they occur on ebay, but not what someone is just asking for it. Report this Post to the Staff
tdziemia Pillar of the Community United States 7955 Posts	Posted 12/09/2018 08:08 am This coin was struck in 1967 (you can see this date below the bust) to commemorate the 250th anniversary of the empress' birth https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces12436.html As mentioned by okiecoiner, the numismatic value is not high because the coin was damaged to make the watch, but there is a market for objects like this made from coins.
