Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Grosso - Innocent XI (St. Peter) ND (1676-1689) coin from Papal States is that it features an image of St. Peter, who is considered the first bishop of Rome and the leader of the early Christian church, on one side, and an image of the Papal States' coat of arms on the other. This coin was minted during the reign of Pope Innocent XI, who was known for his efforts to reform the Catholic Church and his opposition to the power of European monarchies. The coin's silver content and relatively small weight make it a valuable and collectible item for numismatists and historians interested in the history of the Papal States.
