Comment
No coins are stated to exist for 1675 but, the CNI states that the 1676 emission is "as in the previous year".It is unclear therefore if such a date exists.
Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Carlino - Clement X 1671-1676 coin from Bologna (Papal States) is that it was minted during a time of significant political and religious upheaval in Europe. The coin was issued during the reign of Pope Clement X, who was the third pope during the Papal States' era. This period saw a rise in tensions between the Catholic Church and European powers, as well as conflicts within the Church itself. Despite these challenges, the coin remained a widely used and trusted form of currency throughout the region.
