Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 2 Ducats - Ferdinand and Isabella ND (1590-1593) from City of Kampen (Dutch States) gold coin is that it was minted during a time of great change and turmoil in Europe. The coin was issued during the reign of Ferdinand and Isabella, who were the King and Queen of Spain, and the Netherlands was under Spanish rule at the time. The coin's minting was likely a response to the growing economic and trade needs of the region, and it features the royal couple on one side and the city's coat of arms on the other. Despite its age, the coin remains a valuable and sought-after collector's item, with some examples selling for thousands of dollars at auction.
