Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the ¼ Thaler coin from the Electors of the Palatinate is that it features an image of Charles Theodor, the ruler of the Palatinate, on one side, and an image of the Palatinate coat of arms on the other. This coin was minted in 1765 and was made of silver, weighing 6.97 grams. It was a standard circulation coin during its time and was used for everyday transactions.
