Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler "Konventionstaler" coin from the Bishopric of Freising (German States) is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued in 1790, just a few years before the French Revolution, which had a profound impact on the European monetary system. The Konventionstaler was a standardized currency that was introduced by the German States in an attempt to simplify trade and commerce across the region. Despite the turmoil of the time, the coin remains a valuable piece of numismatic history, made from silver and featuring the image of Joseph Conrad Freiherr of Schroffenberg.
