Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 20 Kreuzers coin from the Duchy of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha is that it features an image of Ernest I, the reigning duke at the time, on one side, and the coat of arms of the duchy on the other. This coin was minted during a time of great change in Europe, as the German states were in the process of forming a unified nation. The coin's silver content and weight also make it a valuable collector's item for numismatists.
