Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Carlino - Pius VI (Key and Tiara) coin is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil in the Papal States. The coin was issued during the reign of Pope Pius VI, who was forced to flee Rome in 1798 due to the French Revolutionary Wars. Despite this upheaval, the coin remained in circulation and is still highly sought after by collectors today.
