Maria Theresa Silver Thaler Coin pendant. Pre owned in excellent condition.

A Maria Theresa Thaler in a silver mount. This silver coin minted by the Austrian Mint is set in silver as pendant.

 While not exceptionally rare, as they have been continuously restruck for trade since 1741 (always dated 1780), the coin’s value depends on its condition, the age of the restrike, and the specific details of its silver mount.

 The coins were widely used for trade, particularly in the Middle East and Africa, and remain popular due to their silver content. 

The original coin was struck during Maria Theresa’s reign (1740-1780) but was continuously restruck by the Austrian Mint with the 1780 date after her death to serve as a major trade coin.
