Interesting fact

The 1 Pfennig coin from the Duchy of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, minted between 1868 and 1870, features an interesting design element - the portrait of Ernest II, the reigning duke at the time, is surrounded by a wreath made up of oak leaves and acorns. This design was a nod to the duchy's rich history and tradition of oak tree cultivation.
