Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 2 Ducats coin from the Duchy of Württemberg is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the coat of arms of the House of Württemberg, which is placed above the crown on the obverse side of the coin. This shield is a symbol of the ruling dynasty and adds to the historical significance of the coin.
