Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Ducato - Ludovico Trevisan (Sede Vacante) ND (1464) from Bologna (Papal States) made of Gold weighing 3.43 g is that it was minted during a time of great political and religious upheaval in Italy. The coin was issued 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 particular coin was minted in 1464, during the reign of Pope Paul II, who was known for his efforts to reform the Catholic Church and his support for the arts. Despite the turmoil of the time, the coin remains a valuable and sought-after collector's item due to its rarity and historical significance.
