| Aanvullende informatie |
Frederick I married Sophia Louise of Mecklenburg-Schwerin in 1708, his third wife, following the deaths of Elizabeth Henriette of Hesse-Kassel and Sophia Charlotte of Hanover. The quarter ducat was issued to mark that union, though the broad date range in catalogues reflects ongoing striking across multiple years rather than a single commemorative release — a common Hohenzollern practice of extending ceremonial types well past the event itself.
The .986 fine gold standard used here slightly exceeds the conventional ducat fineness, a deliberate choice by the Berlin mint to signal prestige on presentation pieces.
