Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Dreier coin from the Principality of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the coat of arms of the House of Guelph, to which Henry the Younger belonged. This shield is placed above the crown on the obverse side of the coin, and it adds an extra layer of historical significance to the coin.
