Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Ducat coin from the Margraviate of Brandenburg-Ansbach is that it features a unique design element - a small hole in the center of the coin. This hole was intentionally added to the coin's design to signify the coin's value, as it was believed that a coin with a hole in it was worth more than a solid coin of the same weight. This design element was a distinctive feature of coins from the Margraviate of Brandenburg-Ansbach and set them apart from other coins of the time.
