Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler coin from Sachsen-Weimar is that it features an image of John Ernest III, the Duke of Sachsen-Weimar, on one side, and an image of the coat of arms of the County of Henneberg-Ilmenau on the other. This coin was minted during a time when the German States were still using a variety of different currencies, and the 1 Thaler coin was a widely used denomination across many regions. Additionally, the fact that it was made of silver gives an idea of the value and worth of the coin during that time period.
