| Additional information |
Bavaria's pfennig coinage under Ludwig I occupied an awkward administrative moment — the kingdom had only recently consolidated its monetary system following the territorial gains of the Napoleonic reorganization, and smaller copper denominations were chronically understruck relative to demand in rural markets. The KM#742 type ran just five years before a recoinage rationalization displaced it.
