Interesting fact

The 1 Quattrino coin from the Duchy of Milan, issued during the reign of Filippo III (1600-1614), features an interesting design element - a small shield with the Visconti biscione (a serpent devouring a child) symbol, which was a symbol of the ruling Visconti family. This coin was made of copper and weighed 2.15 grams.
