Interesting fact
The 1⁄48 Thaler coin from the Duchy of Saxe-Gotha-Altenburg, minted during the reign of Frederick III (1767-1772), features an unusual design on its reverse side. Instead of the typical coat of arms or other symbols of the duchy, the coin bears an image of a large, crowned eagle, surrounded by a wreath of laurel leaves. This design was meant to symbolize the power and prestige of the duchy, and it was a departure from the more traditional designs used on other coins of the time.
