Historical

This very rare silver off-metal strike from the stamps of a double ducat is proof of the concept for the monetary policy by Frederick I: He promoted the mint in Gotha, had it legally recognized and recruited qualified personnel.

Thus, the Gotha mint reached an unlikely coin volume (over 100 different types) in the years around 1690 and became the most productive mint in Thuringia.
