Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern 1 Ducat (Silver pattern strike; Coronation) 1790 from Free imperial city of Frankfurt (German States) made of Silver weighing 2.2 g is that it features a unique design that was never used on any other coin. The obverse of the coin depicts a crowned shield with the Frankfurt coat of arms, while the reverse shows a crowned eagle with the date 1790 and the motto "Sit Nomen Domini Benedictum" (May the name of the Lord be blessed). This design was created specifically for the coronation of Emperor Leopold II and was only used on a small number of coins, making it a highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
