Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the ½ Ducat coin from the 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 Eberhard III, who was a key figure in the Thirty Years' War, a devastating conflict that lasted from 1618 to 1648. Despite the challenges of this period, the coin still maintains a high level of craftsmanship and beauty, with its gold content and detailed design making it a valuable and sought-after collector's item.
