Mintmaster IK - Johann Koch (Dresden)Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 4 Ducats - John George IV 1692 from Electorate of Saxony (Albertinian Line) (German States) coin is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued during the reign of John George IV, who was the Elector of Saxony from 1691 to 1703. During his reign, the Electorate of Saxony was facing significant economic challenges, including a severe devaluation of the currency and a decline in trade. Despite these challenges, the coinage of the Electorate of Saxony during this period is known for its high quality and artistic beauty, making it a valuable and sought-after collector's item among numismatists today.
