Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the ½ Baiocco coin from Gubbio (Papal States) is that it was minted during the reign of Pope Clement XI, who was known for his efforts to reform the Catholic Church and his support for the arts. The coin's design, which features an image of the Pope on one side and the Papal States' coat of arms on the other, reflects the religious and political significance of the Papal States during this time period.
