Interesting fact

The Augsburg ½ Ducat coin from 1750 is a rare and valuable numismatic item, with only a few specimens known to exist. One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique pattern, with a crowned imperial eagle on the obverse (front) side, and a shield with the Augsburg coat of arms on the reverse (back) side. This design was never used on any other coin, making it a distinctive and highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
