Comment
This coin is also called a Arslanitaler or Löwentaler.Interesting fact
The 1 Conventionsthaler coin from the Electorate of Bavaria, issued in 1768 during the reign of Maximillian III Joseph, features an interesting design element - a crowned shield with the initials "M" and "J" on either side, which stand for the Latin phrase "Maximilianus III Josephus" and signify the dual rule of Maximillian III and his son, Joseph.
