Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 6 Pfennigs coin from the Duchy of Saxe-Coburg-Saalfeld is that it features an image of Ernest I, the reigning duke at the time, on one side, and a crowned shield with the coat of arms of the duchy on the other. This coin was minted during a time of great change in Europe, as Napoleon's military campaigns were underway, and many German states, including Saxe-Coburg-Saalfeld, were involved in the conflict. Despite the turmoil, the coin remains a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of the region.
