Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1627 1 Ducat coin from the Free City of Regensburg is that it features a unique design element - a small hole in the center of the coin. This hole was intentionally drilled into the coin as a way to signify its authenticity and value. At the time, it was believed that a coin with a hole in it was less likely to be counterfeited, as it would be more difficult to reproduce the intricate details of the coin's design. This feature has become a distinctive characteristic of the 1627 1 Ducat coin and has made it a popular collector's item among numismatists.
