Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1751 1/24 Thaler coin from the Duchy of Saxe-Coburg-Saalfeld is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the initials "FJ" (for Francis Josias) located above the crown on the obverse side of the coin. This shield is not found on other coins from the same series, making it a distinctive feature of this particular coin.
