One interesting fact about the 30 Kreuzers coin from the Electorate of Bavaria is that it was minted during the reign of Charles Albert, who was the Prince-Elector of Bavaria from 1726 to 1745. During his reign, Charles Albert implemented a number of reforms aimed at modernizing the Bavarian economy and military, which helped to strengthen the state's position within the Holy Roman Empire. The coin itself is made of silver and weighs 6.5 grams, making it a valuable and collectible piece for numismatists.
