Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Ducat coin from the Prussian bishopric of Breslau is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued during the reign of Frederick the Great, who was the King of Prussia from 1740 to 1786. During his reign, Prussia underwent significant economic and military reforms, which helped to establish the country as a major power in Europe. The 1 Ducat coin, made of gold and weighing 3.5 grams, was a symbol of the country's growing wealth and influence during this time.
