Slg. Noss 471Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the ½ Thaler coin from the Electors of the Palatinate (German States) is that it was minted during a time of great political and economic change in Europe. The coin was issued in 1792, just a few years before the French Revolution, which had a profound impact on the European political landscape. Additionally, the coin was minted during a period of economic upheaval, as the value of silver coins was fluctuating due to changes in trade and commerce. Despite these challenges, the ½ Thaler coin remains a valuable and sought-after collector's item, with its unique design and historical significance making it a fascinating piece of numismatic history.
