Comment

The AKS mentions that the edge of the 1830 vintage can be smooth or ridged, and that subsequent vintages always have smooth edges. J. Isenbeck reports that all edges are smooth. This appears to be incorrect, as some vintages struck after 1830 have been observed to have a finely striated edge.

Julius Isenbeck cites two different types ofshield. Some vintages would have a shield with dots on the edge of the shield (1830, 1834, 1836), others without dots (1832, 1838). However, all the vintages observed have dots on the edge of the shield. We might assume that the coins without dots analyzed by J. Isenbeck were worn coins on which the dots were no longer visible.Automatically translated

Interesting fact

The 1 Kreuzer coin from the Duchy of Nassau was minted during the reign of William, who was the Duke of Nassau from 1830 to 1838. The coin features an image of William on one side and the coat of arms of Nassau on the other. It's interesting to note that the coin was made of copper, which was a common material for coins at that time, but it's also notable that the coin weighs only 3.75 grams, making it a relatively lightweight coin.
