Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 2 Ducats - Frederick III (Peace) 1755 coin from Duchy of Saxe-Gotha-Altenburg is that it features an image of Frederick III, the Duke of Saxe-Gotha-Altenburg, on one side, and a representation of the personification of Peace on the other side. This coin was minted to commemorate the end of the Seven Years' War, which had a significant impact on the German States, including the Duchy of Saxe-Gotha-Altenburg. The coin's design and symbolism reflect the desire for peace and prosperity in the region after a long period of conflict.
