1 Konventionsthaler - Franz Josef I

Liechtenstein's 1778 Konventionsthaler was struck under Franz Josef I, the first prince to genuinely consolidate the family's hold on the tiny principality after decades of absentee rule from Vienna. The Konventionstaler standard itself had been fixed by the 1753 monetary convention between Austria and Bavaria, establishing a 10-thaler-to-mark-of-Cologne ratio that remained nominally in force for the better part of a century.

Liechtenstein's coinage output was never substantial — the principality lacked its own mint and relied on contracted facilities. Surviving examples in any condition are scarce simply by virtue of how few were struck.
