Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 2 Ducats - Frederick William 1641 from State of Brandenburg-Prussia (German States) coin is that it features an error in the inscription on the reverse side. The Latin inscription "FRIDERICUS WILHELMUS" contains a typo, with the letter "H" appearing twice in a row. This error was not corrected in subsequent mintings, making it a unique characteristic of this particular coin.
