Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Grosso - Innocent XI coin is that it was minted during a time of significant political and religious tension in the Papal States. Pope Innocent XI, who ruled from 1676 to 1689, was known for his strong stance against the expansion of Protestantism and his efforts to maintain the power of the Catholic Church. This coin, minted during his papacy, may have been used as a symbol of the Church's authority and influence during a time of great change and upheaval in Europe.
