| Aanvullende informatie |
Charles Frederick ruled Württemberg for just four years before dying in 1744, a reign too short to leave much administrative mark but long enough to produce this gold ducat series. The duchy was navigating the turbulent aftermath of the War of Austrian Succession during these years, and gold coinage of this period from smaller German states often saw limited striking as bullion supplies tightened under wartime pressures.
The Friedberg reference places this among the southern German ducats struck to the standard Reichsdukat weight convention — a standard that Württemberg maintained with notable fidelity, which accounts for the .986 fineness specification rather than the debased alternatives some contemporaries adopted.
