| Aanvullende informatie |
Ferdinand I secured the Bohemian crown in 1526 following the death of Louis II at Mohács, and his ducats struck at Prague reflect the consolidation of Habsburg control over the Bohemian mints during the subsequent decades. The Prague mint was one of the most productive in Central Europe at this period, drawing on Bohemian silver wealth — but gold ducats remained prestige strikes, issued in comparatively small numbers relative to the thaler coinage that dominated regional commerce.
By 1561, Ferdinand was also Holy Roman Emperor, a title he had held since 1558. The Prague ducat of this year was struck within three years of his death in 1564.
