Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler coin from the Duchy of Saxe-Weimar-Eisenach is that it features an image of Charles August, the ruling duke at the time, on one side, and an image of the coat of arms of the duchy on the other. This coin was minted in 1813, during a time of great political and economic change in Europe, and it is a unique piece of history that has survived to this day.
