    Not as much as you might suspect w/o pics ;) They have been continuously struck with the same date for over 200 years. The Arabs (who used them primarily) preferred the old design. So even if it has a date of 1780 it quite possibly could have been struck in the 20th century. Here is useful link which might help you...

    There has been developed, I believe, a rough chronology of these pieces by use of die varieties. Even if you attributed it, though, I doubt it would bring much more than standard price.

    I have a feeling it's probably just your standard restrike. Don't authentic examples of common Maria thalers go for only around $70 as it is?

    People who ask to have their answers emailed usually never return to the forum to read the postings.

    kmanic, if you return and read this, my apologies for doubting you.

    It depends on the date, some are downright pricey.

    I wasn't referring to restrikes, but some of those aren't exactly cheap either.
