The Thaler of Empress Maria Theresa, minted in Günzburg in 1780, is a silver coin depicting the profile of the Empress. The coin is a prime example of 18th-century numismatics and reflects the artistic style of the period. The inscription "M. THERESIA D. G. R. IMP. HU. BO. REG." on the coin refers to Maria Theresa's titles as Queen of Hungary and Bohemia and Holy Roman Empress. The coin is currently housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, NY.
