Interesting fact

The 1 Ducat coin from the Free City of Regensburg (German States) made of Gold (.986) weighing 3.49 g is interesting because it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued during the period of the Holy Roman Empire, which was a loose confederation of German states that lasted from the 10th to the 19th century. The Regensburg mint was one of the most important mints in the empire and was known for producing high-quality coins. The 1 Ducat coin was a standard circulation coin and was widely used in trade and commerce throughout the region. Despite its age, the coin remains a popular collector's item today, with many collectors seeking out examples in good condition.
