Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Sesino coin from the Duchy of Parma and Piacenza is that it features a unique design element - a cross on the reverse side, which was a symbol of the House of Bourbon, the ruling dynasty of the duchy at the time. This design element sets the coin apart from other coins issued by the duchy during the same period.
