Interesting fact
The 1 Ducat 1677 from City of Stralsund (German States) gold coin features an image of the Stralsund coat of arms on one side and the Hamburg coat of arms on the other. This is because Stralsund was a free imperial city within the Holy Roman Empire, and Hamburg was a powerful Hanseatic League city that had a close relationship with Stralsund. The inclusion of both coats of arms on the coin symbolizes the political and economic ties between the two cities during that time.
