Comment
Slg. Noss 390Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 1 Thaler - Charles Theodore (Konventionstaler) 1771-1773 from Electors of the Palatinate (Palatinate, German States) made of Silver is that it was minted during a time of great political and economic change in the region. The coin was issued during the reign of Charles Theodore, who was the Elector of the Palatinate and also the Duke of Bavaria. This was a time of great upheaval in Europe, with the American Revolutionary War taking place and the French Revolution on the horizon. The coin's minting was likely a response to the economic and political changes happening at the time, and it is a fascinating piece of history that has survived to this day.
