Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 10 Kreuzers coin from the Electorate of Bavaria is that it was minted during a time of great political and social change in Europe. The coin was issued in 1790, just a few years before the French Revolution, which had a profound impact on the political landscape of Europe and led to the rise of modern nation-states. The coin's design, featuring an image of Charles Theodore, the ruler of Bavaria at the time, and the inscription "Vikariat," reflects the political and religious tensions of the era.
