Comment
Varieties exist with or without lion tongueInteresting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Quattrino - Clement XII 1730-1740 coin from Bologna (Papal States) is that it features an image of Pope Clement XII on one side and an image of the Papal States' coat of arms on the other. This coin was minted during Pope Clement XII's reign, which lasted from 1730 to 1740, and was used as a standard circulation coin in the Papal States. Despite its small size and relatively low value, this coin is a rare and valuable collector's item today, with some examples selling for thousands of dollars at auction.
