Interesting fact

The 1 Ducat coin from the Kingdom of Bavaria, minted during the reign of Maximilian I Joseph (1807-1822), features an interesting design element - the obverse side bears the image of the king, while the reverse side features the coat of arms of Bavaria, surrounded by the inscription "MAXIMILIAN I JOSEPH KÖNIG VON BAYERN" (Maximilian I Joseph, King of Bavaria). This design was a departure from the traditional layout of coins at the time, which typically featured the king's image on both sides. This unique design choice adds to the coin's historical and numismatic significance.
