Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Ducat coin from the Principality of Löwenstein-Wertheim-Rochefort is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued in 1754, just a few years before the outbreak of the Seven Years' War, which had a profound impact on the German states and the rest of Europe. Despite this turmoil, the coin remains a testament to the enduring legacy of the Principality of Löwenstein-Wertheim-Rochefort and its rich history.
