Interesting fact

The coin features an image of Joseph, the Duke of Saxe-Altenburg, on one side, and the coat of arms of the duchy on the other. The coin was minted in 1841, during Joseph's reign, and was used as a standard circulation coin in the German States. It's interesting to note that the coin was made of copper, which was a common material for coins at that time, and it's still in good condition, considering it's over 170 years old!
