| Aanvullende informatie |
Charles Theodore (Karl Theodor) struck this Konventionstaler under the monetary convention of 1753, the agreement between Bavaria and Austria that standardized the thaler at 10 to the Cologne mark — a reform that finally brought some coherence to the fractured coinage of the Holy Roman Empire's southern states. The Palatinate mint at Mannheim was operating under considerable pressure during this period, as Charles Theodore was simultaneously funding an extravagant court culture that would eventually drain the electorate's treasury.
1761 falls squarely in the Seven Years' War, when silver flows across the Empire were disrupted and coin hoarding was widespread. The Dav GT II reference places this squarely in the German Taler series documentation by Davenport.
