Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 10 Ducats - Gustav Adolphus II 1632 coin from the City of Erfurt (German States) is that it features an error in the inscription on the reverse side. The Latin inscription "GUSTAVUS ADOLFUS II DEI GRATIA" is misspelled as "GUSTAVUS ADOLFUS II DEI GRAFIA," with the word "GRATIA" (meaning "grace") incorrectly replaced with "GRAFIA" (meaning "graphic"). This error makes the coin particularly rare and valuable among collectors.
