Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern 1⁄12 Thaler - Frederick August I (Gold Pattern) 1820 from Kingdom of Saxony (Albertinian Line) (German States) is that it was minted during a time of economic and political change in Germany. The coin was issued in 1820, just a few years after the Napoleonic Wars had ended, and the German states were in the process of reorganizing their currencies and economies. The Pattern 1⁄12 Thaler was a proposed coin that was meant to be used as a standardized currency across the German states, but it was ultimately not adopted. Despite this, the coin remains a unique and interesting piece of numismatic history.
