Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Ducat - Charles Theodore (Lotterie-Dukat) ND (1767) coin is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in the Palatinate region of Germany. The coin was issued by the Electors of the Palatinate, who were seeking to promote trade and commerce in the region. The use of gold in the coin's minting was a deliberate choice, as it was seen as a valuable and stable metal that would inspire confidence in the coin's value.
