Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The Kingdom of Saxony, where the coin was minted, was part of the German States, a loose confederation of territories that would eventually become modern-day Germany. The coin's mintage coincided with the height of the Napoleonic Wars, which had a profound impact on European economies and political structures. Despite these challenges, the coin's production continued, and it remains a valuable piece of numismatic history.
