Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 6 Pfennigs coin from the Duchy of Saxe-Coburg-Saalfeld is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the letters "F" and "J" on either side of the coat of arms, which stands for Francis Josias, the ruler of the duchy at the time the coin was minted. This shield is not found on other coins from the same era, making it a distinctive feature of this particular coin.
