Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Scudo Romano - Pius VI 1795 from Bologna (Papal States) coin is that it features a unique design element. The coin's obverse side bears an image of Pope Pius VI, while the reverse side features an image of the Papal States' coat of arms. This design was used during the papacy of Pius VI, who ruled from 1775 to 1799, and was minted in Bologna, which was a city-state within the Papal States at the time. The coin's silver content and weight also make it a valuable collector's item for numismatists.
