Comment
Slg. Hermann 873Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the ¼ Ducat (Dukatenklippe) ND (1740) from City of Stuttgart (German States) made of Gold weighing 0.82 g is that it was minted during a time when the Duchy of Württemberg was transitioning from a feudal society to a modern state. The coin's design, which features the coat of arms of the Duchy on one side and the image of a standing figure on the other, reflects this shift towards modernity and the growing influence of Enlightenment values in the region.
