'''Ducat''' is a [[Treasure]] card from [[Renaissance]]. Unlike most Treasures, Ducat gives [[Coffers]] instead of [[vanilla]] +{{Cost}}. It also is a [[+Buy]] card, and may [[Trasher|trash]] a {{Card|Copper}} from your hand when gained.

== FAQ ==
=== Official FAQ ===
* When you play this, you get no {{Cost}}, but get +1 Coffers and +1 Buy. 
* When you gain this, you may trash a Copper from your hand; this is optional.

== Strategy ==
Ducat can be seen as a variant of {{Card|Candlestick Maker}}, with the option of spending $3 instead of $2 to trash a Copper. Doing so is usually worth it. Ducat is a subpar opening card, even with the option of trashing a Copper, since its limited economy makes it hard to afford {{Cost|5}} cards in the early game. However, the buy it provides can be useful, especially because the +Buy does not cost an action.

{{Quote|Text=Ducat is the [[Coffers]] [[treasure]]. If you have a {{Card|Copper}} in hand when you get it, it essentially [[Remodeler|upgrades]] the Copper into a kind of save-able Copper.

=== Secret History ===
{{Quote
|Text=A late card. I needed a {{Cost|2}}, and a +1 Buy card. Matt suggested making it a Treasure and there it is. It didn't change, but it did get argued about. Adam felt like it was "strictly better" than {{Card|Candlestick Maker}}. I am pretty sure it isn't. What feels better is when you trash a Copper with it... which effectively costs you {{Cost|3}}. But any which way, one is a Treasure and one an [[Action]], and various things make those categories matter. It and Candlestick Maker are more similar than most pairs of cards, and well, twelfth expansion, trying to have simple cards, no regrets.
