Comment
Ref. H#420; JB-2570. Prev. KM#318.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 6 Kreuzers - Maximilian IV Joseph (Kreuzers Landmünze) 1801-1804 coin from the Electorate of Bavaria is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued during the reign of Maximilian IV Joseph, who was the Elector of Bavaria from 1799 to 1804. During this period, the Holy Roman Empire was dissolved, and Bavaria became an independent kingdom. The coin's minting was likely a response to the economic and political changes happening at the time, and it is a tangible representation of the historical events that took place during this era.
