Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern 1 Ducat - Charles (Silver pattern strike) 1686 from Landgraviate of Hesse-Cassel (Hesse-Cassel) made of Silver is that it features a unique design that was never used on any other coin. The obverse of the coin depicts a portrait of Charles, the Landgrave of Hesse-Cassel, while the reverse features a complex allegorical scene that includes a shield with the Hesse-Cassel coat of arms, a crown, and a scepter. This design was created specifically for this coin and was not used on any other coins issued by Hesse-Cassel, making it a truly one-of-a-kind piece for collectors.
