Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1633 Breisach 1 Ducat Klippe is that it was minted during the Thirty Years War (1618-1648), a devastating conflict that ravaged much of Europe. Despite the war, the coin still maintains a high level of craftsmanship and detail, with intricate designs on both sides. Additionally, the use of gold (.986) and the relatively small weight of 3.5g makes it a valuable and collectible coin among numismatists.
