One interesting fact about the 2 Ducats - Matthias II 1617 coin is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil in Europe, specifically during the Thirty Years War (1618-1648). Despite the conflict, the coin still maintains a high level of craftsmanship and detail, showcasing the rich history and culture of the City of Breslau (now Wrocław, Poland) and the region of Silesia.
