Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Scudo ND (1546-1548) coin from Siena Republic is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the letters "S.P.Q.S." (Senatus Populusque Sienensis) which stands for "Senate and People of Siena". This symbol represents the republic's independence and sovereignty, and it's a distinctive feature that sets this coin apart from other coins of the time.
