Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the ¼ Ducat 1707 from City of Zürich is that it was minted during a time when the Swiss Confederation was still a relatively new entity, having been formed just over a century prior in 1648. The coin's minting was likely a symbol of the city's prosperity and growth during this period.
