Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the ¼ Ducat 1702 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 issuance reflects the growing economic and political influence of the Confederation during this period.
