| Beschrijving voorzijde | Armored and draped bust of Elector Charles Theodore facing right, with naturalistically rendered curled hair and lace cravat visible beneath the cuirass. The effigy is rendered in high relief in the Baroque courtly tradition, with finely detailed drapery over the shoulder. The encircling Latin legend reads CAR. THEODOR. D. G. C. P. R. V. B. D. S. R. I. A. D. & EL., abbreviating his full electoral titles. The legend is evenly spaced around the periphery of the finely milled coin. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Charles Theodor inherited Bavaria in 1777 following the extinction of the Wittelsbach-Bavaria line with the death of Maximilian III Joseph — a succession he neither sought nor welcomed. He spent most of his reign attempting to exchange Bavaria for the Austrian Netherlands, a scheme Joseph II actively encouraged and Frederick the Great just as actively blocked, triggering the War of the Bavarian Succession in 1778–79. By 1781, Charles Theodor was still resident in Munich but politically hamstrung, ruling a territory he had tried twice to trade away.
The .833 fineness on this issue is characteristic of the Bavarian taler standard of the period, slightly below the Reichstaler convention.
