Comment
Struck in 1/4 Ducat weight.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern 1 Kreuzer - Frederick Charles Joseph of Erthal (Gold pattern strike) 1795 from Archbishopric of Mainz (German States) is that it was minted during a time of great political and economic upheaval in Europe. The French Revolution had just begun, and the Holy Roman Empire, of which the Archbishopric of Mainz was a part, was about to be dissolved. This coin, made of gold (.986) and weighing 0.88g, was a pattern strike, meaning it was not intended for circulation but rather as a sample or prototype for a potential new coin design. Despite its rarity and historical significance, the coin's value is still relatively affordable for collectors, making it an attractive addition to any collection of rare coins.
