Comment
Kahnt 55Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Conventionsthaler - Maximilian IV Joseph 1803 from Electorate of Bavaria (German States) coin is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued in 1803, just a few years before the Napoleonic Wars, which had a significant impact on the German states and led to the establishment of the Confederation of the Rhine, a loose alliance of German states that was formed to counter the growing power of Napoleon's France. This coin, made of silver and weighing 28 grams, was likely used in everyday transactions during this time of upheaval and change.
