Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Ducat 1632-1637 from City of Stralsund (German States) is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued during the Thirty Years War (1618-1648), a devastating conflict that ravaged much of the continent and had a profound impact on trade, commerce, and the economy. Despite these challenges, the City of Stralsund was able to maintain its independence and prosperity, and the 1 Ducat coin became an important symbol of the city's economic and political power.
