Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted to commemorate King Louis I of Bavaria, who was a key figure in German history and played a significant role in the unification of Germany. The coin's design features a portrait of the king on one side and the Feldherrenhalle, a famous building in Munich, on the other. The coin's silver content and weight also make it a valuable collector's item for numismatists.
