Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Conventionsthaler coin from the Margraviate of Baden-Durlach is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued in the mid-18th century, a period marked by the rise of trade and commerce, as well as the decline of feudalism and the rise of modern nation-states. The coin's design, which features an image of Charles Frederick, the Margrave of Baden-Durlach, and the coat of arms of the margraviate, reflects the political and economic shifts that were taking place at the time. The use of silver in the coin's minting also speaks to the growing importance of trade and commerce in the region, as silver was a valuable and widely-used currency at the time.
