I just got this at a Flea market. I know it's silver but Ithat's all I know. Can you help with the ID? Is it real? what's it worth? Thanks for the help. Obverse:R.IMP.HU.BO.REG.M.THERESIA.D.G. UNDER BUST: S.F. BACK OF COIN: ARCHID.AVST.DUX.BURG.CO.TYR.1780.X THANKS FOR THE HELP!
I'm guessing you've got yourself a Maria Theresa Thaler restrike...quite common actually. Here are a couple of links to get you started... Link 1 Link 2 A google serach will turn up plenty of info, but these should answer most of your questions. Hope this helps
Thanks for the info! While the one I got look like a modern re-strike, at least its a real coin and worth the $7 I paid for it. It will be a good story for me to tell !
