Interesting fact
The 1 Heller coin from the Duchy of Nassau, minted in 1842 during the reign of Adolph, is notable for its unique design. The obverse side features an image of Adolph, while the reverse side bears the coat of arms of Nassau, surrounded by a wreath of oak leaves. This design was a departure from the standard design used on other coins of the time, which typically featured a generic image of a ruler or a symbol of the state. The use of a personal coat of arms on the coin was a nod to Adolph's personal influence and power within the Duchy.
