Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 1 Giulio - Leo X (St. Peter and Paul) ND (1513-1521) from Papal States made of Silver is that it features an image of St. Peter and St. Paul on one side, and the Papal tiara and keys on the other. This design was used during the reign of Pope Leo X, who was known for his efforts to reform the Catholic Church and his love of art and architecture. The coin was likely used for everyday transactions within the Papal States, and its silver content made it a valuable and durable form of currency.
