Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 2 Ducats - Frederick Augustus I 1695 coin is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in the Holy Roman Empire. The coin was issued by the Electorate of Saxony, which was one of the most powerful states within the Empire, and it features an image of Frederick Augustus I, who was the Elector of Saxony at the time. The coin's gold content and weight also make it a notable example of coinage from this period, as it was a valuable and highly sought-after denomination in its time.
