Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 6 Kreuzers - Ernest I 1838 coin from the Duchy of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the initials "E" and "G" on either side of the crown, which stands for the names of the ruling dukes, Ernest I and his brother, Prince Gotha. This coin was minted during a time of great change in Europe, with the rise of industrialization and the fall of feudalism, and it serves as a small but significant reminder of the complex history of the German states during that era.
