Comment
Mintmaster PS - Peter SchraderInteresting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Ducat coin from Archbishopric of Magdeburg (German States) is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil in Europe, specifically during the Thirty Years War (1618-1648). Despite the conflict, the coin still maintains a high level of craftsmanship and beauty, showcasing the rich detail and artistry of the time.
