Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Pattern 3 Pfennige - Frederick August I (Silver pattern strike) 1825 from Kingdom of Saxony (Albertinian Line) (German States) made of Silver weighing 5.47 g is that it was minted during a time of great change in Germany. The coin was minted in 1825, just a few years after the Congress of Vienna in 1815, which saw the major powers of Europe reorganize the German states into a more centralized entity. This coin is a representation of the tumultuous time period and serves as a reminder of the political and economic changes that were taking place in Germany during the early 19th century.
