The historical background of the Austrian ducat gold coins

Austria’s most important historical gold coin, the Franz Joseph Ducat, is an exquisite piece of gold prized worldwide for its enduring uniformity and high purity. Also known as the “Austrian Ducat” or “1 Ducat,” it embodies the history of the Austrian Empire, the second largest European nation and one of the leading world powers of the time.

The gold coin ducat was minted by Austria during the period of the Austrian Kingdom and the Austro-Hungarian Empire. The last ducats minted and put into active circulation were produced by the Austrian Mint in 1914.

Design and texture of the ducat gold coin

Past events are immortalized in a gold purity of 98.6%, which is one of the highest gold finenesses among classic gold coins. The highly detailed one ducat gold coin is decorated with the powerful coat of arms of the House of Habsburg, one of the oldest and most influential royal families in Europe, and with the portrait of one of the last great monarchs of Europe, Franz Joseph of Austria. The design of the ducat gold coin was first minted in 1872 and is used today by the prestigious Austrian Mint to re-coin the Franz Joseph Ducat,.

Obverse: The obverse shows the portrait of Emperor Franz Joseph crowned with a laurel. The title “FRANC IOS IDG AUSTRIAE IMPERATOR,” which translates as “Franz Joseph I, by the Grace of God Emperor of Austria,” surrounds his portrait.

Reverse: The reverse shows the coat of arms of the House of Habsburg surrounded by the text “HVNGAR BOHEM GAL LOD ILL REX AA 1915”, which translates as “Hungary, Bohemia, Galicia, Lodomeria, Illyria, King and Archduke of Austria 1915”.

Details of the gold coin ducat

The obverse of 4 ducats, dated 1915, shows the image of Franz Joseph I. The reverse side contains the coat of arms of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy. The golden ducat has remained unchanged for 400 years, except for minor details and adjustments.

4 ducats: Weight: 13.96 grams and 39.50 mm diameter.
1 ducat coin: Weight: 3.49 grams and has a diameter of 19.75 mm.
