Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1796 Rostock 1 Ducat coin is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued during the reign of Emperor Francis II, who was the last emperor of the Holy Roman Empire and the first emperor of the Austrian Empire. This period saw the rise of nationalism and the fall of feudalism, which had a significant impact on trade and commerce. Despite these changes, the 1 Ducat coin remained a stable and trusted form of currency, and its value remained consistent throughout the German States.
