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 of Hohnstein on the other. This coin was minted during a time of great economic and political change in the German States, and its design reflects the importance of religion and local identity during that period.
