Interesting fact

The 1 Heller coin from the Duchy of Saxe-Meiningen, issued in 1714 during the reign of Ernest Louis I, features an interesting design element - a stylized portrait of the duke, surrounded by a wreath made up of two intertwined serpents. This unique design was meant to symbolize the duke's role as a wise and powerful ruler, guiding his people through the challenges of life.
