Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler "Conventionsthaler" coin from the Archbishopric of Mainz is that it was minted during a time of great political and economic upheaval in Europe. The coin was issued in 1794, just a few years after the French Revolution, which had a profound impact on the German states and the Holy Roman Empire. The coin's minting was likely a response to the economic and political changes that were taking place at the time, and it is a tangible reminder of the complex history of Europe during this period.
