Interesting fact

The 1 Quattrino coin from Gubbio (Papal States) made of Copper weighing 2.86 g, featuring Benedict XIII (St. Peter), has an interesting fact that it was minted during a time of significant religious and political change. Pope Benedict XIII, who reigned from 1724 to 1730, was known for his efforts to reform the Catholic Church and his support for the Jesuits. Additionally, this coin was minted during a period of conflict between the Papal States and the Kingdom of Naples, making it a unique piece of history.
