Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 10 Scudi coin from the Duchy of Savoy is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the letter "V" (for Victor Amadeus I) placed above the coat of arms on the obverse side of the coin. This subtle detail sets it apart from other coins of the same era and adds to its historical significance.
