Interesting fact
The 1 Pfennig coin from the Duchy of Saxe-Meiningen, minted in 1818, features an interesting design element - a crowned shield with the initials "B.E.F." (Bernhard Eric Freund) on either side, signifying the coat of arms of the ruling duke, Bernhard II. This coin was minted during a time of great change in Germany, as the Holy Roman Empire had recently been dissolved, and the German States were in the process of forming their own confederation. The coin's design reflects this shift in power, as the ducal coat of arms takes center stage, symbolizing the growing importance of regional identity and autonomy.
