Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted to commemorate Frederick III's granting of the Polish Order of the White Eagle, which was a prestigious honor granted to only a select few individuals. The coin's design features an image of Frederick III on one side and the Polish Order of the White Eagle on the other, symbolizing the close relationship between the Duchy of Saxe-Gotha-Altenburg and Poland.
