Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Ducat - Francis Hugo 1756 coin from County of Königsegg-Rothenfels (German States) is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the initials "F.H." (for Francis Hugo) located above the coat of arms on the obverse side of the coin. This subtle detail sets it apart from other coins of the same era and issuing authority.
