Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 2 Ducats - Charles XI 1690-1695 coin is that it was minted during a time of great change and conflict in Europe, particularly in the Swedish dominion of Pomerania. The coin was issued during the reign of Charles XI, who was the King of Sweden from 1660 to 1697. During his reign, Sweden was involved in several wars, including the Scanian War (1675-1679) and the Great Northern War (1700-1721), which had a significant impact on the region's economy and political landscape. Despite these challenges, the coin remained a stable and trusted form of currency, reflecting the value of gold and the economic power of the Swedish dominion of Pomerania during that time.
