Interesting fact

The 1 Ducat coin was minted during a time of great political and social change in Poland. The Duchy of Warsaw was established in 1807 as a client state of Napoleon's France, and Frederick Augustus I was the first Duke of Warsaw. The coin was minted in 1812-1813, just before the Duchy was dissolved and Poland was partitioned between Russia, Prussia, and Austria. Despite the turmoil of the time, the 1 Ducat coin remains a valuable and sought-after collector's item, with its gold content and historical significance making it a prized addition to any collection.
