Comment
Minted 1903 for FerrariInteresting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern 1 Conventionsthaler - Louis I (Geschichtstaler; Mortgage Bank - Pattern) 1835 from Kingdom of Bavaria (German States) made of Gold (.900) weighing 48.27 g 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 of Bavaria on one side and an image of a allegorical figure representing the state of Bavaria on the other. The coin was minted in 1835 as a pattern coin, meaning it was not intended for circulation but rather as a prototype or sample for a potential coin design. It is considered a rare and valuable collector's item among numismatists today.
