1 Thaler - Christian Frederick Charles Alexander Peace

Struck to commemorate the Peace of Teschen, which ended the brief War of the Bavarian Succession in May 1779. That conflict — fought largely through maneuver rather than pitched battle — was derisively nicknamed the Kartoffelkrieg, the Potato War, because the armies spent more energy foraging root vegetables than fighting. The treaty itself was brokered under heavy pressure from France and Russia, effectively blocking Joseph II's ambitions to absorb Bavaria into Habsburg territory.

Christian Frederick Charles Alexander was the last Hohenzollern margrave of Ansbach, ceding the territory to Prussia in 1791 in exchange for a generous Prussian pension.
