Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Heller coin from the Electorate of Bavaria is that it features an image of Charles Theodor, who was the ruler of Bavaria during the time the coin was minted (1780-1799). This coin was part of a series of coins minted during his reign, which aimed to standardize the currency across the German States. Despite being made of copper, which is a relatively common metal, the coin's design and historical significance make it a valuable collector's item for numismatists today.
