Comment
The Mint Treaty of January 24, 1857, concluded in Vienna, prohibited the minting of ducats in the territory of the German Customs Union. The minting of these coins therefore contradicted the provisions of the treaty.Interesting fact
The 1 Ducat - Maximilian II (Rheingold-Dukat) 1863 from Kingdom of Bavaria (German States) is interesting because it was minted during a time when Germany was not yet a unified country, and the various states had their own currencies. The coin features the image of Maximilian II, the King of Bavaria, and was made of gold (.937) with a weight of 3.49 grams. Despite being a standard circulation coin, it is now a rare and valuable collector's item due to its historical significance and limited mintage.
