Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Ducat - Charles Alexander 1736 coin from the Duchy of Württemberg is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the coat of arms of the House of Württemberg, which is surrounded by a wreath of laurel leaves. This design was a departure from the traditional design used on previous coins of the time, and it added an extra layer of visual interest to the coin. Additionally, the use of gold (.986) in the coin's composition gave it a high level of durability and made it a valuable and sought-after collector's item.
