Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Dreier "Spruchgroschen" coin is that it features a unique design element - a small hole in the center of the coin. This hole was intentionally placed there by the mint to signify the coin's value, as it was believed that the hole would make the coin easier to distinguish from other coins of similar value. This design feature is known as a "Spruchgroschen" and was a common feature on coins from the Duchy of Saxe-Weimar during this time period.
