Interesting fact

The 8 Ducats coin from the Free Imperial City of Nuremberg (German States) made of Gold (.986) weighing 27.81g is a rare and valuable coin. One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of Emperor Charles VI, who was the Holy Roman Emperor from 1711 to 1740. The coin's design features the Emperor's portrait on one side and the Nuremberg coat of arms on the other, making it a unique and collectible piece of history.
