Comment
Kirchheimer 70Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1775 Hesse-Cassel 1 Ducat coin is that it features a unique design element - a small hole in the center of the coin. This hole was intentionally drilled into the coin as a way to test its authenticity. At the time, counterfeiters were known to produce coins with a similar design, but without the hole. The presence of the hole in the authentic coin served as a way to distinguish it from the counterfeit versions. This feature is a distinct characteristic of the 1775 Hesse-Cassel 1 Ducat coin and adds to its historical and numismatic value.
