Comment
Slg. Noss 421Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the ½ Thaler - Charles Theodore (Konventionstaler) 1762-1763 from Electors of the Palatinate (Palatinate, German States) made of Silver is that it was minted during a time of great political and economic 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. This was a time of great upheaval in Europe, with the Seven Years' War taking place and the dissolution of the Holy Roman Empire. Despite these challenges, the coin remained a stable and trusted form of currency in the region, and its silver content made it a valuable commodity.
