Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the ½ Piastra - Clement XI (DILEXI DECOREM DOMVS TVAE) ND (1711) coin from 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 the Pope's crowned coat of arms on one side and the inscription "DILEXI DECOREM DOMVS TVAE" (I have loved the beauty of your house) on the other, reflects the religious and artistic themes that were important during his papacy.
