Interesting fact
The 1 Quattrino coin from the Duchy of Milan, issued during the reign of Philip IV (1621-1665), features an interesting design element - a small shield with the coat of arms of the House of Habsburg, which was the ruling dynasty of the Duchy at the time. This shield is located on the reverse side of the coin, beneath the crowned shield with the arms of Milan. This design feature highlights the political alliance and influence of the Habsburgs in the region during that period.
