How much is a silver 1 tallar worth?

Answer 1

It depends greatly on the coin. Thalers (spelled a number of different ways including taler, tallar, dalar, etc.) were used for many years in Germanic/Austrian countries.

The most common, and indeed the only one that has been minted continually, would be the Maria Theresa Thaler dated 1780. Such coins have been made from 1780-today with the 1780 day and so they don't have much collector value for modern specimens (although there are people who collect them by micro-variety). Such coins are ~83.3% pure silver and trade close to silver melt about $20-30 depending on the spot price of silver.

However, there are a multitude of different other thalers, many with MUCH higher prices, although the exact price depends on the type/date of the coin and the condition.
