One interesting fact about the 2 Ducats - Ferdinand III (Vienna) 1641-1657 coin is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil in the Austrian Empire. The Thirty Years War had just ended in 1648, and the empire was facing economic and political challenges. Despite these challenges, the coin was made with high-quality gold (.986) and weighs 7 grams, indicating the value and importance of the coin at that time.
