Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Scudo - Innocent X 1654 coin from Bologna (Papal States) is that it was minted during the reign of Pope Innocent X, who was known for his controversial policies and political alliances. Despite being made of gold, the coin's value was not necessarily tied to the value of the metal, but rather to the authority and power of the Papal States. This coin serves as a reminder of the historical and cultural significance of the Papal States and its influence on the economic and political landscape of Europe during that time.
