Interesting fact

The ¼ Kreuzer coin was minted during the reign of Bernhard II, who was the Duke of Saxe-Meiningen from 1828 to 1832. The coin features an image of the duke on one side and the coat of arms of the duchy on the other. What's interesting is that the coin was made of copper, which was a common material for coins at the time, but it was also a symbol of the duchy's wealth and prosperity. The use of copper for coins was a sign of the duchy's commitment to trade and commerce, as copper was a valuable resource that was widely used in industry and trade.
