Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Ducat coin from the Swedish dominion of Pomerania is that it was minted during a time of great change and conflict in Europe. The coin was issued during the reign of Charles X, who was the King of Sweden from 1654 to 1658. During this time, Sweden was involved in a series of wars with neighboring countries, including the Second Northern War, which lasted from 1655 to 1660. Despite these conflicts, the coinage of the Swedish dominion of Pomerania continued to be minted, providing a glimpse into the economic and cultural activities of the region during this period.
