Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1730 Augsburg Confession 1 Ducat coin is that it was minted to commemorate the 200th anniversary of the Augsburg Confession, a significant event in the history of the Lutheran Church. The coin's design features an image of the Lutheran rosary, which symbolizes the unity of faith and the bond between the Lutheran Church and the city of Augsburg. The coin's mintage was limited to only 1,000 pieces, making it a rare and valuable collector's item for numismatists and history enthusiasts.
