Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Giulio - Clement XI coin is that it features a unique design element that sets it apart from other coins of its time. The coin's obverse side bears the image of Pope Clement XI, while the reverse side features the coat of arms of the Papal States, which includes the keys of St. Peter and the papal tiara. This design was a departure from the traditional design used on other coins of the Papal States, which typically featured the pope's image on both sides. This distinctive design element makes the 1 Giulio - Clement XI coin a standout among other coins of its era.
