Interesting fact

The 1 Ducat coin from County of Hohenlohe-Neuenstein (German States) made of Gold (.986) weighing 3.5 g is interesting because it was minted during the reign of Wolfgang Julius, who was the Count of Hohenlohe-Neuenstein from 1696 to 1723. This coin is a rare example of a gold coin minted during his reign, and its high gold content and weight make it a valuable collector's item.
