What you most likely have is a type of "Conder Token". In England, there was a shortage of official copper coins since the Royal Mint did not strike copper pennies, half pennies or farthings during the early reign of George III (they would resume striking copper coins in 1797). Because of the need of small change, people would either use counterfeit coins (they would be slightly underweight which allowed for a profit for the counterfeiter and because of the need for copper coins, counterfeiting of these small denominations was overlooked by the authorities) or they would use "tokens" made by businesses or private individuals for change. I can't seem to find any reference for a coin similar to yours, but assuming this is a copper coin, that might be a starting point to try to identify it.

If we assume for a moment this is indeed a conder token, the value is fairly modest if circulated. There are many rare varieties, but, although conder tokens are fairly widely collected, the values are much lower than what you'd expect to see in a US or official British coin of the same rarity. If we figure out this to be a common type, values would range from $3-$20 if circulated and $50+ if in better condition.

What is the value of a 1780 Maria Theresa Thaler?

There are a few things to realize about a 1780 Maria Theresa Thaler: Your coin was NOT minted in 1780, the Austrian mint has produced Maria Theresa Thalers fixed at Maria Theresa's death in 1780, most likely your coin was made in the 20th or 21st century. That doesn't mean your coin is worthless it just means that your coin isn't several hundred years old. Since they are restrikes, they don't have much of a premium over silver value, today they run around $25-30 depending on silver price and the condition of the coin.

What is the value of a 1780 Maria therese silver coin?

First, it is highly unlikely your coin was struck in 1780, the Maria Theresa thaler has been struck in large quantities from 1780 all the way to the present day. If you are really interested, there are ways to determine by the die if yours is an older strike or a newer one. But generally, these coins sell for silver scrap, or perhaps a bit more. You should easily be able to sell it for $20-25 depending on the price of silver.
