Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Ducat coin from Margraviate of Brandenburg-Ansbach is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in the German States. The coin was issued in 1684, just a few years after the Thirty Years War, which had a profound impact on the region's economy and political landscape. Despite these challenges, the coin still maintains a high level of craftsmanship and beauty, with its gold content and detailed design showcasing the skill of the mint's craftsmen.
