Mintmaster Christoph Busch

Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler - Charles Theodore of Dalberg (Konventionstaler) 1809 coin is that it was minted during a time of great political and economic change in Germany. The Confederation of the Rhine, which was formed in 1806, was a loose alliance of German states that was established under the protection of Napoleon's France. The coin's minting was likely a response to the need for a standardized currency across the confederation, which would have facilitated trade and commerce among the member states.
