Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Giulio - Pius IV (St. Peter) ND (1559-1565) coin from Papal States is that it features an image of St. Peter, who is considered the first bishop of Rome and a prominent figure in Christianity, on one side, and a portrait of Pope Pius IV on the other. This coin was minted during a time of significant religious and political change in Europe, and its design reflects the influence of the Catholic Church during that period.
