Neugroschen

The Neugroschen ("new groschen", abbreviation Ngr.) was a Saxon Scheidemünze coin minted from 1841 to 1873 which had the inscription Neugroschen. This groschen, made of billon, was equivalent to the Prussian groschen but, unlike the latter, was divided not into 12, but into 10 pfennigs.

1863 Neugroschen, divided into 10 Pfennigs, 30 to a Thaler (diameter 18 mm, Dresden Mint)
