Interesting fact
The 1 Ducat 1644 from City of Stralsund (German States) is a rare and valuable coin, with only a few known examples surviving to this day. One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil in Europe, with the Thirty Years' War (1618-1648) taking place during the same period. Despite the conflict, the coin still maintains a high level of craftsmanship and detail, with intricate designs and inscriptions that showcase the skill of the mint's engravers and craftsmen.
