Comment
Copper pattern strike of KM766Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern 1 Conventionsthaler - Louis I (Customs Union; Copper pattern strike) 1835 from Kingdom of Bavaria (German States) made of Copper is that it was designed by the artist Johann Baptist Stiglmaier, who was a prominent medalist and engraver of the time. The coin features a portrait of King Louis I on one side and an image of the Bavarian coat of arms on the other. The coin was minted as a pattern strike, meaning it was not intended for circulation but rather as a prototype or sample for a potential coin design. This particular coin is considered rare and highly sought after by collectors due to its historical significance and the fact that it was never officially released into circulation.
