Comment
An similar coin save for the legend was issued by Costanzo Sforza in the decades preceding.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Quattrino - Giovanni Sforza ND (1500-1510) coin from the City of Pesaro (Italian States) is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the initials "G.S." (for Giovanni Sforza) on the reverse side, which was a distinctive mark of the coins minted during his reign.
