Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Ducat coin featuring John George II Fuchs of Dornheim is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in the German States. The coin was issued in the early 17th century, a period marked by the Thirty Years' War, which had a profound impact on the region's economy and political landscape. Despite these challenges, the coin remains a testament to the enduring legacy of the Bishopric of Bamberg and the artistic skill of the mint masters who created it.
