Interesting fact
The 1 Quattrino coin from Gubbio (Papal States) made of Copper weighing 2.65g has a unique feature. It has a square shape with rounded corners, which was a distinctive design element of coins minted during the reign of Pope Innocent XIII (1721-1724). This square shape with rounded corners was a departure from the traditional circular shape of coins and was used to distinguish the coinage of Innocent XIII from his predecessors and successors.
