Interesting fact

The 10 Ducats coin from the Free Imperial City of Aachen (German States) made of Gold (.987) weighing 34.72g is an interesting piece of history. One fascinating fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of Charles V, who was the Holy Roman Emperor at the time. This coin is a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of the region, and it serves as a reminder of the economic and political significance of the Free Imperial Cities during that era.
