Interesting fact

The 4 Ducats coin from the Principality of Transylvania (Hungarian States) made of Gold (.986) weighing 14g is interesting because it was minted during the reign of Maria Theresa (1759-1765), who was the first and only female ruler of the Habsburg dominions and one of the most influential women in European history.
