Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Ducat coin featuring Frederick Charles of Schönborn is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil in the German States. The coin was minted in 1731, just a few years before the outbreak of the War of the Polish Succession, which would have a significant impact on the region. Despite this, the coin remains a testament to the enduring legacy of the Schönborn family, who played an important role in the political and religious landscape of the region for centuries.
