Comment
Mule of Divo 180 obverse and Divo 179 reverse.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1806 Frederick August III (Mule) 1 Ducat coin from the Electorate of Saxony (Albertinian Line) is that it features a unique combination of designs from two different coinage systems. The obverse (front) side of the coin bears the image of Frederick August III, while the reverse (back) side features the coat of arms of the Albertinian Line of the House of Wettin, which was the ruling dynasty of Saxony at the time. This combination of designs is known as a "mule" and is considered a rare and interesting variation in numismatics.
