Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of Charles IV Theodore, who was the last Elector of the Palatinate before the region was annexed by France in 1799. The coin's design features an image of Charles IV Theodore on one side and the coat of arms of the Palatinate on the other. The use of gold in the coin's minting adds to its value and rarity, making it a highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
