Interesting fact
The 1 Dreier coin from the Duchy of Saxe-Weimar, made of silver, features an interesting fact: it has a unique "split-date" feature, where the year 1675 is written in Arabic numerals on one side, while the year 1682 is written in Roman numerals on the other side. This unusual design choice was likely done to reflect the dual dating system used in the German States during that time period.
