Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Ducat - Clement VII ND (1523-1534) from Ancona (Papal States) gold coin is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil in the Papal States. Pope Clement VII, who ruled from 1523 to 1534, was faced with the challenge of the Protestant Reformation and the subsequent wars of religion that broke out across Europe. Despite these challenges, the Papal States continued to mint coins, such as the 1 Ducat, which remained a stable and trusted form of currency throughout the region.
