Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of the Ragusan Republic, a medieval state that existed from the 14th to the 19th century and was known for its economic and cultural prosperity. The coin's design features the bust of a ruler, likely a duke or a king, and its silver content makes it a valuable collector's item for numismatists.
