Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Ducat - Charles Eugen 1790 coin from 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 was added to the obverse (front) side of the coin. This shield was not present on earlier issues of the coin, and it was added to signify the change in rulership from Duke Charles Eugene to his son, Duke Ludwig. This small detail provides a glimpse into the rich history and cultural significance of the coin, making it a truly fascinating piece for collectors and historians alike.
