Mintmasters G. Bonanni, S. Pagliari and G. Martelli active since 1633Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Scudo d'Oro - Urban VIII ND (1623-1633) coin is that it was issued during the reign of Pope Urban VIII, who was a member of the Barberini family and was known for his lavish spending and patronage of the arts. The coin's design features the papal coat of arms and an image of the pope himself, reflecting the powerful influence of the Catholic Church during this time period.
