Interesting fact
The ½ Scudo coin was minted during the papacy of Clement XIII, who was known for his efforts to reform the Catholic Church and its institutions. The coin's design features an image of the Pope on one side and the Papal States' coat of arms on the other, symbolizing the Church's authority and influence in the region. Despite being a standard circulation coin, the ½ Scudo is now a rare and valuable collector's item, with some mint conditions selling for thousands of dollars.
