Interesting fact
The 1 Thaler coin from the Duchy of Saxe-Coburg-Saalfeld, minted in 1687 during the reign of John Ernest VIII, features an interesting design element - a crowned shield with the coat of arms of the duchy on one side, and the reverse side shows the denomination and year of minting surrounded by a wreath. This coin was made of silver, which was a valuable and widely used metal for coinage during that time period.
