Interesting fact
The 1 Kreuzer coin from Charles Theodor's reign was the first coin to feature the portrait of a reigning monarch on a Palatinate coin. This was a departure from the previous practice of featuring allegorical figures or coats of arms on coins, and marked a shift towards more personalized and humanized representations of power on currency.
