Interesting fact

The 1 Kreuzer coin from Saxe-Meiningen features an image of George I Frederick Charles, the Duke of Saxe-Meiningen, on one side, and the coat of arms of the duchy on the other. The coin was made of Billon, a type of alloy that is composed of a mixture of copper, silver, and other metals. This coin was used as a standard circulation coin during George I Frederick Charles' reign from 1786 to 1794. I hope you find this information helpful!
