Interesting fact
The Pattern 3 Ducats - Christian V (Pattern) 1673 from Norway, made of Billon (.407 silver), is a rare and valuable coin that was minted as a trial piece for a new currency system that was never implemented. As a result, only a small number of these coins were produced, making them highly sought after by collectors.
