Interesting fact
The Gold Ducaton - Charles III 1711 from Spanish Netherlands (Duchy of Brabant, Belgian States) is an interesting coin because it was minted during a time when the region was under Spanish rule, yet it features a portrait of Charles III, who was the Duke of Parma and Piacenza, and not a Spanish king. This highlights the complex political history of the region and the various influences that shaped its coinage.
