Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Giulio - Clement XI (POSSESS) ND (1701) coin from the Papal States is that it features a unique design element - the letters "POSSESS" in the inscription "POSSESSIO ECCLESIÆ" are written in reverse, which is a nod to the tradition of the Pope's authority and possession of the Church.
