Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Testone - Sixtus V (NVNQUAM DEFICIET) ND (1585-1590) coin from Papal States is that it features a unique design element. The coin's obverse side bears the image of Pope Sixtus V, while the reverse side features the coat of arms of the Papal States, which includes the keys of St. Peter and the papal tiara. This design was used during Sixtus V's papacy, which lasted from 1585 to 1590, and was meant to symbolize the pope's authority and the connection between the Papal States and the Holy See.
