Interesting fact

The 1 Soldo coin from the Duchy of Milan, issued during the reign of Maria Theresia (1777-1779), features an interesting design element - a small hole in the center of the coin. This hole was intentionally added to the coin to make it easier for people to thread the coin onto a string or cord, allowing them to wear it as a pendant or amulet. This unique feature has made the coin a popular collector's item among numismatists and history enthusiasts.
