Holy smokes. That is one sweet Austrian thaler!

I hope that is the correct ID. We will see.

Congrats on the find of a lifetime... IMO.

I bet it felt heavy! sweet! congrats
 
Further research indicates that this coin was minted into the 1900s... with the 1780 date on it.

Someone with more knowledge than I, needs to chime in on this one.

Still an awesome find IMO.

I know more about it now then when I dug it , after I found it I sat down on a park bench and gently cleaned it , then I seen the date , now that was a WOW moment
 
Nice find. I have one I purchased, they told me it was late 1800s restrike from original dies. Still old and silver!
