Comment
Mintmaster - Johann Jakob Ebenauer.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Ducat coin from the Margraviate of Brandenburg-Ansbach is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued in 1740, just a few years before the Seven Years' War, which had a profound impact on the economy and political landscape of Europe. Despite this, the coin remains a testament to the craftsmanship and artistry of the time, with its intricate design and high gold content.
