Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design element - a small image of the Earth, surrounded by the text "SALUS ECCLESIAE" (meaning "Salvation of the Church") on the reverse side. This symbolizes the connection between the church and the state, and highlights the importance of religious values in the region at the time.
