Aanvullende informatie

Nuremberg's fractional ducat coinage of this period served a specific commercial function in a city whose merchant class demanded small-denomination gold for fine transactions. The 1/8 ducat denomination was never common — the economics of striking near half-gram gold flans made production costly relative to face value, and surviving examples from 1700 are scarce precisely because few were made. Nuremberg lost its status as a Free Imperial City in 1806 when Napoleon reorganized the German territories, ending seven centuries of municipal coinage at a stroke.
