Interesting fact
The 1 Ducat coin from the Principality of Transylvania, minted in 1613 during the reign of Gábor Báthori, is an interesting piece of history. One fascinating fact about this coin is that it was made of gold, specifically 0.986 gold, which is a high percentage of gold content for a circulating coin. This indicates that the Principality of Transylvania had a strong economy and was able to afford the use of precious metals in their currency. Additionally, the coin's design features the coat of arms of the Báthori family, which adds to its historical significance and value to collectors.
