Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern 1 Ducat (Silver pattern strike; Coronation) ND (1742) from Free imperial city of Frankfurt (German States) made of Silver is that it features a unique design that was never actually used as a circulating coin. Instead, it was created as a pattern strike, which means it was produced as a prototype or sample coin to test the design and minting process. Despite its rarity and historical significance, the coin remains a popular collector's item among numismatists today.
