Interesting fact
The 1 Dreier - William (Weimar Ducal Palace) 1651 coin from the Duchy of Saxe-Weimar (German States) is notable for its unique design, which features an image of the Weimar Ducal Palace on one side and the coat of arms of the Duchy of Saxe-Weimar on the other. This design was chosen to commemorate the 1651 renovation of the palace, which was a significant architectural project in the region at the time. The coin's silver content and relatively low weight also make it a valuable and collectible item among numismatists.
