One interesting fact about the 1 Goldgulden coin from the Duchy of Saxe-Weimar is that it features a unique design element - a crowned shield with the coats of arms of the seven brothers of John Ernest IV, who ruled the duchy together from 1613 to 1619. This distinctive feature sets the coin apart from other coins of the time and makes it a notable piece in numismatic collections.
