Comment
Slg. Noss 424Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the ½ Thaler - Charles Theodore (Konventionstaler) 1765 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. At the time, the Palatinate was part of the Holy Roman Empire, and Charles Theodore was one of the most powerful rulers in the region. The coin's design features an image of Charles Theodore on one side and the coat of arms of the Palatinate on the other. The use of silver in the coin's minting was also significant, as it reflected the growing wealth and prosperity of the region during this time.
