Interesting fact

The 1 Ducaton coin from Spanish Netherlands (Duchy of Brabant, Belgian States) minted during the reign of Philip V (1703-1704) is considered a rare and valuable collector's item due to its high relief design and limited mintage. It is believed that only around 1,000 coins were struck, making it a highly sought-after piece among numismatists.
