Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1/12 Thaler coin from the Electorate of Saxony (Albertinian Line) is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the coat of arms of the Electorate of Saxony, which was a powerful state in the Holy Roman Empire. This shield is located on the reverse side of the coin, surrounded by a wreath of leaves. This design element was added to the coin to signify the coin's origin and to show the connection between the Electorate of Saxony and the Holy Roman Empire.
