Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Ducat 1789-1790 from Free Hanseatic city of Lübeck (German States) is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued during the late 18th century, a period marked by the rise of capitalism and the decline of feudalism. The Free Hanseatic city of Lübeck was a significant trading center during this time, and the coin was likely used extensively in international trade. The fact that it was made of gold (.986) and weighed 3.5 grams suggests that it was a valuable and highly sought-after coin in its time.
