Interesting fact

The 1 Scudo coin from the Siena Republic (Italian States) made of Gold weighing 3.32g is interesting because it was minted during a time when the Siena Republic was an independent state, before it was annexed by the Medici family in 1559. This coin is a rare and valuable piece of history that showcases the economic and political significance of the Siena Republic during that time.
