Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Doppia coin from the Duchy of Savoy is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the letter "F" in the center, which stands for "FERT" or "FERTI," a motto that means "fertile" or "fruitful" in Latin. This motto was used by Emmanuel Philibert I, the Duke of Savoy, to symbolize his desire for prosperity and fertility in his region.
