Interesting fact

The 1 Pfennig coin from the Duchy of Saxe-Altenburg, issued in 1843 during the reign of Joseph, features an interesting design element - a stylized depiction of a lion on the reverse side. This lion symbolizes the coat of arms of the House of Saxony, which ruled the duchy at the time. The use of a lion in the design was a common motif in coins of the German States during this period, as it represented strength, courage, and power.
