Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Kreuzer coin from the Duchy of Saxe-Meiningen is that it was minted during a time of economic and political change in Germany. The coin was issued during the reign of Bernhard II, who was the Duke of Saxe-Meiningen from 1864 to 1866. During this period, the German states were in the process of forming a unified nation, and the coinage of each state was an important symbol of their independence and sovereignty. Despite the political changes, the 1 Kreuzer coin remained a widely used denomination in circulation, and its design featuring the image of Bernhard II and the coat of arms of Saxe-Meiningen became a recognizable symbol of the duchy.
