Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Quattrino coin from Siena Republic is that it was designed with a unique symbol on the reverse side, which is a stylized representation of the Siena Cathedral, a prominent landmark in the city of Siena. This design was meant to represent the city's rich cultural and architectural heritage and to distinguish the coin from other currencies in circulation at the time.
