Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil in Europe, specifically during the War of the Austrian Succession (1740-1748). Despite the conflict, the County of Stolberg-Stolberg was able to maintain its independence and continue minting its own coins, including this ¼ Ducat.
