Interesting fact

The 1 Kreuzer coin from the Duchy of Saxe-Meiningen, minted between 1828 and 1830, features an interesting design element - a stylized depiction of a bust of Bernhard II, the reigning duke at the time, surrounded by a wreath of oak leaves. This design was meant to symbolize the duke's commitment to the prosperity and strength of his duchy, and the oak leaves were a nod to the region's rich agricultural heritage.
