Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 4 Ducats - John George I (Vicariat) 1619 coin is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the coat of arms of the Electorate of Saxony on the reverse side, which was not present on earlier coins of the same denomination. This addition signifies the importance of the Electorate of Saxony and its ruler, John George I, during that time period.
