Interesting fact
The 1 Ducat 1790 from the Free Imperial City of Nuremberg is a rare and valuable coin, with only a few examples known to exist. One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great political and economic change in Europe, with the French Revolution and the rise of Napoleon Bonaparte having a significant impact on the continent. Despite these challenges, the Nuremberg mint continued to produce high-quality coins like the 1 Ducat, which were widely used for trade and commerce. Today, this coin is highly sought after by collectors and historians, not only for its rarity but also for its historical significance and beauty.
