Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1798 Charles Theodore Inngold-Dukat coin is that it was minted during a time of great political and economic change in Europe. The Electorate of Bavaria, where the coin was minted, was part of the Holy Roman Empire, which was dissolved just a few years later in 1806. This coin may have been minted as a way to solidify the power and influence of the Electorate of Bavaria during this time of upheaval. Additionally, the fact that it was made of gold and weighs 3.49g suggests that it was a valuable and significant coin at the time of its minting.
