1 Ducat - Charles III

Charles III of Hungary — better known as Holy Roman Emperor Charles VI — ruled Hungary following the suppression of the Rákóczi uprising, and the ducats of this period were minted under the authority reasserted by the Treaty of Szatmár in 1711. The Kremnitz mint, operating continuously since the medieval period, struck the bulk of Hungarian gold coinage throughout his reign. Die workmanship at Kremnitz varied noticeably across this window; pieces from the earlier years of the 1718–1726 range tend to show crisper execution than later strikes.
