Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1705 Schwäbisch Hall 1 Ducat coin is that it features a unique design element - a small hole in the center of the coin. This hole was intentionally drilled into the coin as a way to test its authenticity. The idea behind this was that only a genuine gold coin would have a small hole that was drilled through it, while a counterfeit coin would be made of a different material and would not have this feature. This hole has become a distinctive characteristic of the 1705 Schwäbisch Hall 1 Ducat coin and is highly sought after by collectors.
