Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1749 Free Imperial City of Frankfurt 1 Ducat coin is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the letters "F" and "S" on either side of the coat of arms, which stands for "Frankfurt am Main" and "Souveräne" (sovereign) respectively. This shield was added to the coin's design to signify the city's independence and sovereignty.
