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 late 18th and early 19th centuries saw the rise of the Napoleonic Empire, which had a significant impact on the German states, including the Duchy of Saxe-Weimar-Eisenach. The coin's minting during this period speaks to the duchy's efforts to maintain its economic and political independence in the face of external pressures.
