Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Ducat - Henry XXIII 1824 coin from County of Stolberg-Wernigerode (German States) is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued in 1824, just a few years after the Congress of Vienna, which was a conference of European powers that aimed to reorganize Europe after the Napoleonic Wars. This period saw the rise of new nationalism and the reorganization of many European countries, and the issuance of this coin reflects the economic and political shifts that were taking place at the time.
