Hello! Trying to free up some cash for a coin show, so offering a group of world silver for a price below most coin shops. Nice variety, with Japan, South Africa, Proof Austrian commemoratives, and more interesting and older stuff. Total ASW is 8.209 Tr. oz, at current spot that is $628.81.

Asking 82 percent of melt, asking $515 for the lot (less than 82% of melt.).

Shipping is via USPS Ground for $5 or Priority for $10.

Payment is via Venmo (greatly preferred), or Zelle/Cashapp if absolutely necessary.

Thanks for looking guys, looking to move these quickly as a complete lot.

Despite being called the Austrian Netherlands, this country occupied the territory we call Belgium today, not the Netherlands. The country was formed in 1714 when it was transferred from Spanish to Austrian rule at the end of the Spanish war of Succession, after Spain had to cede the territory to Austria. It existed until 1794 when the territory was lost to France, and it took until 1830 for Belgium to become an independent country.

This coin was minted under the rule of Maria Theresia, who you may know from the popular and common Maria Theresia Thaler restrikes, that have been minted continuously for over 250 years. This coin, though, was actually minted during her lifespan. This Thaler is relatively common as far as 18th century crowns go, and this type ran from 1755 till 1780, when Maria Theresia passed away.

737 thousand of these were minted in 1769, making it a slightly less common date. The eagle design and cross on this coin look beautiful and I’m happy to add it to the crown collection!
