Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the Sede Vacante period, which means "empty seat" in Latin, referring to the period between the death of a pope and the election of a new one. This coin was minted in 1829, during the Sede Vacante period following the death of Pope Leo XII.
