Interesting fact
The 1 Silver Ducat coin from the Province of Utrecht was minted during a time of great economic and political change in the Dutch Republic.

Despite its relatively small denomination, the coin was made of silver, which was a valuable and highly sought-after metal at the time. The fact that the Province of Utrecht was able to produce such a coin during this period speaks to the region's economic prosperity and the importance of trade and commerce in the Dutch Republic.
