Interesting fact

The 1 Baiocco coin from Gubbio (Papal States) made of Copper and weighing 13.81g is interesting because it was issued during the reign of Pope Benedict XIII, who was known for his efforts to reform the Catholic Church and its finances. This coin was likely used in everyday transactions within the Papal States, and its design may have been influenced by the artistic and cultural trends of the time.
