Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler coin from the Duchy of Saxe-Hildburghausen is that it features an image of Joseph Frederick, the ruling duke at the time, on one side, and an image of the Saxon coat of arms on the other. This coin was minted during a time of great change and upheaval in Europe, with the French Revolution and the Napoleonic Wars taking place just a few decades later. Despite this, the coin remains a valuable piece of history and a testament to the craftsmanship and artistry of the time.
