Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 quattrino coin from the Duchy of Massa-Carrara is that it features an image of Albéric Ier, who was the first duke of the Duchy of Massa-Carrara and ruled from 1571 to 1578. He was a member of the House of Malaspina, a noble family from the region of Tuscany in Italy. The coin's design was likely meant to honor Albéric's leadership and legacy in the region.
