Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued by a municipality in what is now Germany, but at the time it was part of the Saxe-Coburg and Gotha duchy, which was a small state within the German Empire. The coin features an image of a miner and a hammer, reflecting the region's rich mining history.
