One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 1 Thaler - John Casimir and John Ernest II 1577-1586 from Duchy of Saxe-Coburg-Eisenach (German States) made of Silver weighing 29.12 g is that it features a unique combination of religious and political symbols. The obverse side of the coin depicts the two co-ruling dukes, John Casimir and John Ernest II, in a rare double portrait, while the reverse side features the coat of arms of the Saxe-Coburg-Eisenach dynasty, topped with a crown and surrounded by an oak wreath. This blend of secular and religious imagery reflects the complex political and religious landscape of the German States during the 16th century.
