Comment
Slg. Noss 460Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1790 Konventionstaler coin is that it was minted during a time of great political and economic change in the Palatinate region of Germany. The coin was issued by Charles Theodore, the Elector of the Palatinate, who was also the Duke of Bavaria. This coin was part of a series of reforms that Charles Theodore implemented to modernize the economy and government of the Palatinate, which had been weakened by years of conflict and economic instability. The coin's design features an image of Charles Theodore on one side and the Palatinate coat of arms on the other, symbolizing the unity and strength of the region. Despite the challenges faced by the Palatinate during this time, the 1790 Konventionstaler coin remains a valuable and sought-after collector's item, a testament to the enduring legacy of Charles Theodore's reforms.
