Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern 1 Conventionsthaler - Louis I (Geschichtstaler; Constitution Monument Dedication - Pattern) 1828 from Kingdom of Bavaria (German States) 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 a depiction of the Constitution Monument on the other, which was erected in Munich to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the Bavarian Constitution. The coin's design was meant to symbolize the connection between the monarchy and the constitution, and it is considered a rare and valuable collector's item today.
