Interesting fact
The 1 Quattrino coin from Bologna (Papal States) made of Copper and weighing 1.68g is interesting because it was issued during the reign of Pope Pius VI in 1795, a time of great political and social change in Europe. The coin's design features the Papal tiara and keys, symbolizing the Pope's authority, and the reverse side shows the coat of arms of the Papal States. Despite its small denomination, the coin has a rich history and is a valuable collector's item for numismatists interested in the history of the Papal States and the Catholic Church.
