Interesting fact
The ½ Thaler coin from the Electorate of Bavaria, minted during the reign of Maximilian III Joseph (1763-1774), features an interesting design element - a crowned shield with the initials "M" and "J" on either side, representing the names of the ruler and the state. This coin was made of silver, which was a valuable and durable material commonly used for coins during that time period.
