The Austria Gold 1 Ducat coin has one of the most complex coining histories.  It was once available in both silver and gold.  Some of it's earliest forms were issued by King Roger II of Sicily in 1140.

One popular form of the Ducat was the Dutch Ducat, first issued by the Holland Province in 1583 as a copy of the Hungarian Ducats.  In 1600, Amsterdam was a center of international trade and Dutch type Ducats were issued for use as global trading currency.

Specs:

.1106 Troy ounce of gold

Bears face value of 1 Ducat 

Obverse: Right profile of Emperor Franz Joseph I of the Austrian-Hungarian Empire

Reverse:  Official seal of the Austrian-Hungarian Empire and the Hapsburg Dynasty

Edges: Reeded

Purity: 0.986

Year: 1915

Emperor Franz Joseph I was the longest reigning King of Hungary during the Austrian-Hungarian Empire.  The double-headed eagle and the shield of the Hapsburg Dynasty, that of which Joseph I was the last ruling member, is on the reverse side of the coin.

In the 1950's, the Austrian Mint recognized that there was a strong demand for gold and issued re-strikes of the 1915 1 Ducat.  There was a law in the US that did not allow collectors to own gold coins dated prior to 1933.  This re-striking took advantage of a US government loophole that would legally allow collectors to own the coins.

Now, a note for the lady stackers...........A matched pair would make an awesome pair of earrings! Just saying!

Thanks for stopping by and taking a look at these two beauties!  Keep on stackin' and don't forget not all silver and gold are stackable......there are unstackble-stackables too!

Take care everybody!
