Interesting fact

The 1835 Louis I Geschichtstaler from the Kingdom of Bavaria features an interesting design element - the portrait of Louis I on the obverse is surrounded by a wreath made up of 16 shields, each representing one of the German states that were part of the German Confederation at the time. This design was meant to symbolize the unity and cooperation among the German states, and it adds a unique touch to the coin's design.
