Answer:

ducat

3

.A ducat is a gold coin. Ducat sounds like “duckit” and was used as European currency until the early 20th century.

Explanation:

Ducat is an Italian word related to duke. If you recognize this word, you might know it from William Shakespeare’s Hamlet, in which the hero shouts “Dead, for a ducat, dead!” Also, ducat is mentioned so often in The Merchant of Venice that it was slang for “money” or “ticket” for a long time after. But don’t ask for your change in ducats; the cashier probably won’t know what you’re talking about.
