Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great change and upheaval in Germany. The Grand Duchy of Saxe-Weimar-Eisenach was one of the many German states that existed before the unification of Germany in 1871. This coin was minted during the reign of Charles Alexander, who was the Grand Duke of Saxe-Weimar-Eisenach from 1858 until his death in 1870. During his reign, the German states were going through a period of political and economic change, including the formation of the North German Confederation, which was a precursor to the unification of Germany. Despite the turmoil of the time, the coin remains a valuable piece of history and a testament to the craftsmanship of the mint masters of the era.
