Interesting fact
The 1 Thaler coin from Saxe-Weimar, minted in 1604 during the reign of John, features an unusual design element - a small hole in the center of the coin. This hole was intentionally drilled into the coin to signify that it had been tested for its purity and weight, as was the practice during that time. This unique feature makes the coin stand out among other coins of its era and adds to its historical significance.
