Comment
Mintmaster IHL - Johann Heinrich Löwe.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the ¼ Ducat 1729 from Free Hanseatic city of Hamburg (German States) is that it was minted during a time when Hamburg was an independent city-state and a major trading power in Europe. The coin's gold content and small denomination made it a popular choice for merchants and traders, and it likely played a significant role in facilitating commerce and trade in the region.
