Interesting fact
The 1 Krone coin from the Kingdom of Saxony (Albertinian Line) (German States) made of Gold (.900) weighing 11.111g is interesting because it was minted during a time of economic and political change in Germany. The coin was minted during the reign of King John (1857-1871), who was known for his efforts to modernize and industrialize Saxony. The use of gold in the coin's production also reflects the value placed on the precious metal during this time period. Additionally, the coin's design, featuring the king's portrait and the Saxon coat of arms, highlights the importance of national identity and symbolism during this era.
