Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Ducat - Louis VIII (Jagddukat) ND (1739-1768) coin from Landgraviate of Hesse-Darmstadt is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued during the reign of Louis VIII, who was the Landgrave of Hesse-Darmstadt from 1739 until his death in 1768. During his reign, Louis VIII implemented a number of economic and political reforms, including the introduction of a new currency system, which helped to stabilize the economy and promote trade in the region.
