Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 2 Ducat 1700 from Free Imperial City of Nuremberg is that it features an image of the Holy Roman Emperor, Leopold I, on one side, and the Nuremberg coat of arms on the other. This coin was minted during a time when the Holy Roman Empire was still a powerful entity in Europe, and the fact that Nuremberg was able to mint its own coins with the Emperor's image suggests that the city had a certain level of autonomy and influence within the Empire. Additionally, the fact that the coin was made of gold and weighs 7 grams makes it a valuable and collectible item for numismatists today.
