One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler - Clemens Wenzel of Sachsen (Konventionstaler) 1773 from Archbishopric of Trier (German States) coin is that it features an image of the Archbishop Clemens Wenzel of Sachsen on one side, and the coat of arms of the Archbishopric of Trier on the other. This coin was minted during a time when the Archbishopric of Trier was a powerful and influential state within the Holy Roman Empire, and the image of the Archbishop was a symbol of the authority and power of the church. Additionally, the fact that it was made of silver and weighs 27.90g suggests that it was a valuable and significant coin during its time.
