Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1829 Conventionsthaler - Anton (Prize thaler) from the Kingdom of Saxony (Albertinian Line) is that it was minted to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the accession of King Anton, also known as Anthony of Saxony. He was a member of the House of Wettin and ruled Saxony from 1827 until his death in 1836. The coin's design features an image of King Anton on one side and the Saxon coat of arms on the other. It was minted in limited quantities and is now considered a rare and valuable collector's item among numismatists.
