Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great change and upheaval in Germany. The Kingdom of Saxony, which was a member of the German Confederation, was in the process of transitioning from a feudal society to a modern, industrialized nation. This coin, which was minted during the reign of King John (1860-1872), reflects this change with its use of silver, a valuable and modern material, and its standardized design, which was a departure from the more traditional, varied designs of previous coins.
