Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 20 Kreuzers - Ernest I 1807 coin from the Duchy of Saxe-Coburg-Saalfeld is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the initials "E" and "S" on either side of the crown, which stands for the name of the ruler, Ernest I, and the name of the duchy, Saxe-Coburg-Saalfeld. This distinctive feature sets it apart from other coins of the same era and makes it a sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
