Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 4 Ducats coin from the Margraviate of Brandenburg-Ansbach is that it features a unique triple portrait of the three ruling margraves, Frederick, Albert, and Christian, on its obverse side. This distinctive design was used to symbolize the unity and cooperation of the three rulers in governing the region.
