Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great change and upheaval in Europe. The Grand Duchy of Saxe-Weimar-Eisenach was a small state in what is now Germany, and it was facing significant political and economic challenges in the early 19th century. Despite these challenges, the duchy managed to maintain its independence and cultural identity, and coins like this one were an important symbol of its sovereignty.
