Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 4 Ducats - Johann Jakob Khuen von Belasi 1565 coin is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the initials "IHS" (Iesus Hominum Salvator) at the top of the reverse side. This shield is a symbol of the Jesuit order, which was a powerful religious organization during the time the coin was minted. The inclusion of this symbol suggests that the coin may have been minted specifically for the Jesuit order or that it was intended to be used for religious purposes.
