Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an image of St. Andreas, the patron saint of the County of Hohnstein, on one side, and the coat of arms of the County on the other. This suggests that the coin was minted as a symbol of the County's identity and allegiance to the Saint.
