Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Ducat coin from the Counts of Dietrichstein is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil in Europe, specifically during the Thirty Years' War (1618-1648). Despite the conflict, the coin still maintains a high level of craftsmanship and beauty, with intricate details and designs that showcase the skill of the mint's craftsmen.
