| Beschrijving keerzijde | Displayed imperial double-headed eagle occupying the central field, with two crowned oval shields of arms — Bavaria and the Palatinate (Pfalz) — superimposed on the eagle's breast and hung with order stars. The date appears at the end of the encircling Latin legend. The design reflects the Imperial Vicariate authority claimed jointly by the two Electors following the death of Emperor Charles VI. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Charles Albert of Bavaria struck these thalers during his brief tenure as Imperial Vicar following the death of Emperor Charles VI in October 1740 — a constitutional interregnum during which the Wittelsbach elector exercised quasi-imperial authority in the absence of a crowned successor. It was a moment of calculated self-promotion: Charles Albert had dynastic ambitions of his own and would press his claim to the Habsburg inheritance, eventually securing election as Emperor Charles VII in 1742. The vicariat coinage was part of that political theater.
The two Davenport varieties (1946 and 1946A) reflect die differences documented in the German Thaler series, likely attributable to the Munich mint working through multiple working dies during what was a politically urgent — and therefore hurried — production run.
