Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of economic and political turmoil in Europe, particularly in the German States. The Kingdom of Saxony, where this coin was minted, was part of the Holy Roman Empire, which was dissolved in 1806, just a year before this coin was minted. This coin was also minted during the Napoleonic Wars, which had a significant impact on the economy and currency of Europe. Despite these challenges, the 1/48 Thaler coin remained a widely used denomination in the German States and is now a sought-after collector's item.
