Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1673 Zurich 2 Ducats gold coin is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the letters "SZ" (for Stadt Zurich) located above the coat of arms on the reverse side of the coin. This shield was added to the coin's design to indicate that it was minted in Zurich, and it is a distinctive feature that sets it apart from other coins of the same era.
