Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Pattern 1 Duit (Batenburg; Pattern) ND (1616-1622) from Barony of Batenburg (Dutch States) made of Silver weighing 14.41 g is that it features a unique design that sets it apart from other coins of the time. The coin has a distinctive pattern of circles and lines on the obverse (front) side, which was a deliberate design choice made by the mint to distinguish it from other coins in circulation. This design element not only makes the coin visually striking but also serves as a testament to the craftsmanship and attention to detail of the mint's engravers and artisans.
