Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Filippo coin from the Duchy of Milan (Italian States) made of Silver weighing 27.04g is that it was minted during the reign of Filippo IV, also known as Philip IV, who was the Duke of Milan from 1700 to 1706. During his reign, he sought to centralize power and reform the government, which led to the creation of a new currency system, including the 1 Filippo coin. This coin was used widely in the Duchy of Milan and surrounding regions, and its design featured the image of Filippo IV on one side and the coat of arms of the Duchy of Milan on the other. Despite being minted over 300 years ago, some of these coins can still be found in circulation today, making them a valuable piece of history for collectors and numismatists.
