Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Ducat 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 used to signify the coin's connection to the ruling family of Württemberg and to showcase the duchy's rich history and heritage.
