Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Ducat - Clement VII (Anonimous) ND (1523-1533) coin from Bologna (Papal States) is that it features a unique design element. The coin's reverse side depicts the coat of arms of the Papal States, which includes the keys of St. Peter and the papal tiara, symbolizing the spiritual and temporal power of the Pope. This design was used during the reign of Pope Clement VII, who was known for his controversial policies and conflicts with European powers. The coin's design serves as a reminder of the significant role that the Papal States played in the political and religious landscape of Europe during the 16th century.
