Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Doppia coin from the Papal States is that it was minted during the reign of Pope Clement IX, who was known for his efforts to reform the Catholic Church and his support for the arts. 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 papacy's authority and influence during that time.
