Morphology

reappreciation = appreciation (transparent) = re + appreciate + ion

In the economic sense, 're-' clearly adds the meaning of happening again to 'appreciation' meaning a rise in value.

Etymology

Reappreciation is made of re- 'again' and appreciate, which in money talk can mean 'to rise in value'. So reappreciation can describe the value of a currency or asset going up again.
