Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 3 Ducats 1630 from Free imperial city of Nuremberg (German States) is that it was minted during a time when the city was an important center of trade and commerce in Europe. Nuremberg was a key stopover for merchants traveling between Italy and the northern European countries, and the city's mint was known for producing high-quality coins that were widely accepted and trusted throughout the region. The 3 Ducats coin, made of gold (.986) and weighing 10.13g, would have been a valuable and highly sought-after coin during its time, and it remains a prized collector's item for numismatists today.
