Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern ¼ Ducat - Charles Frederick (Silver Pattern) 1711 from Duchy of Schleswig-Holstein-Gottorp (German States) is that it was minted during a time of great political and economic change in the region. The Duchy of Schleswig-Holstein-Gottorp was a small state located in the northern part of Germany, and it was constantly struggling for survival and independence from its larger neighbors. In 1711, the same year that this coin was minted, the Duchy was facing economic difficulties and political turmoil, which made it necessary for the ruling Duke, Charles Frederick, to seek foreign aid and support. Despite these challenges, the coin still holds significant historical and numismatic value, and it remains a fascinating piece of history for collectors and enthusiasts.
