Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the ⅙ Thaler coin from the Duchy of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha is that it features an image of Ernest II, the reigning duke at the time, on one side, and a depiction of the coat of arms of the duchy on the other. This coin was minted during a time of great change in Europe, with the rise of industrialization and the fall of feudalism, and it serves as a small but tangible reminder of the complex history of the German states during this period.
