Interesting fact

The 1 Soldo coin from the Grand Duchy of Tuscany, minted in 1824 during the reign of Leopoldo II, features an interesting design element - a crowned shield with the Grand Ducal arms, surrounded by a wreath of laurel leaves. This design was a common motif in Tuscan coinage during this period, symbolizing the sovereignty and power of the Grand Duchy.
