Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 3 Ducats (Klippe) coin from the Free Imperial City of Nuremberg is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political significance for the city. In the late 17th and early 18th centuries, Nuremberg was a major center for trade and commerce in the German States, and the coinage issued by the city played an important role in facilitating this trade. The 3 Ducats coin, with its high gold content and elegant design, would have been a valuable and prestigious coin in its time, and it remains a sought-after collector's item among numismatists today.
