Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the ¼ Ducat - Maria Theresa 1752-1755 from Hungary is that it was minted during the reign of Maria Theresa, who was the only female ruler of the Habsburg dynasty and one of the most influential women in European history. She ruled over a vast territory that included Austria, Hungary, and parts of modern-day Italy, Slovenia, and Croatia, among others. The coin's design features an image of Maria Theresa on one side and the Hungarian coat of arms on the other, symbolizing her connection to the region and its rich history.
