Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1747 Joseph Dominicus of Lamberg 1 Ducat coin from the Bishopric of Passau (German States) is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the initials "I.D.L." (Iosephus Dominicus Lamberg) on the reverse side, which was added to commemorate the name of the bishop who commissioned the coin, Joseph Dominicus of Lamberg. This coin is considered a rare and valuable collector's item among numismatists due to its historical significance and limited mintage.
