Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the ½ Ducat - Charles Rudolph ND (1737-1738) coin from Duchy of Württemberg is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued during the reign of Charles Rudolph, who was the Duke of Württemberg from 1737 until his death in 1738. During his short reign, Charles Rudolph implemented several economic reforms, including the introduction of a new coinage system, which helped to stabilize the economy of the Duchy. The ½ Ducat coin was part of this new coinage system and was used widely in trade and commerce throughout the region. Despite its small denomination, the coin was made of gold (.986) and weighed 1.75 grams, making it a valuable and highly sought-after collector's item today.
