Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Heller coin from the Electorate of Saxony (Albertinian Line) is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the coat of arms of the House of Wettin, the ruling dynasty of Saxony at the time. This shield is placed above the crown on the obverse side of the coin, and it symbolizes the connection between the ruling family and the coin's issuing authority. This design element is not commonly found on other coins from the same period, making it a distinctive feature of this particular coin.
