Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 10 Ducats coin from the Archbishopric of Mainz is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the initials "G.F." (for George Frederick) located above the coat of arms on the reverse side of the coin. This subtle detail adds an extra layer of depth and personalization to the coin's design, making it stand out among other coins from the same era.
