Interesting fact
The 1 Bagattino coin was used as a form of payment for the gondoliers who transported people across the canals of Venice. The coin was small enough to be easily carried in a pocket or pouch, and its copper material made it durable and resistant to corrosion, making it an ideal choice for everyday transactions.
