Comment
Minted from silver ore found at the Grube WildbergInteresting fact
One interesting fact about the ⅔ Thaler - Charles Theodore (Ausbeutegulden) 1758 coin from the Electors of the Palatinate (Palatinate, German States) is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in the region. The coin was issued during the reign of Charles Theodore, who was the Elector of the Palatinate and also the Duke of Bavaria. At the time, the Palatinate was facing economic challenges due to the Seven Years' War, and the coin was minted as a way to help alleviate some of the financial burdens. Additionally, the coin features an image of Charles Theodore on one side and the Palatinate coat of arms on the other, making it a unique and interesting piece of numismatic history.
