Interesting fact
The 1 Osella - Alvise Mocenigo II ND (1706) coin from the Republic of Venice (Italian States) is interesting because it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued during the reign of Alvise Mocenigo II, who was the Doge of Venice from 1700 to 1709. During his reign, the Republic of Venice was facing significant challenges, including the decline of its traditional trading industries and the rise of new European powers. Despite these challenges, the Republic of Venice continued to mint coins, such as the 1 Osella, which were used for trade and commerce. The fact that this coin was made of gold and weighs 13.91 grams suggests that it was a valuable and important coin at the time.
