Comment
Small portrait version. Maybe just a gold strike of the 1/12 Speciedaler coinInteresting fact
The 1 Ducat - Frederik III (Largesse issue) 1648 from Denmark is a rare and valuable coin, with only 200 pieces minted. It is made of gold (.979) and weighs 3.49 grams. One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an error in the inscription, with the word "Largesse" misspelled as "Largessse" on some of the coins. This error has led to a higher demand for the coin among collectors, making it a sought-after piece in the numismatic community.
