Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Grosso - Innocent XI coin is that it features a unique design element - the palm wreath - which was a symbol of victory and martyrdom in ancient Rome. This design was chosen to honor Pope Innocent XI, who was known for his strong stance against corruption and his efforts to reform the Catholic Church. The inclusion of the palm wreath on the coin serves as a testament to the Pope's commitment to justice and righteousness.
