Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 15 Soldi coin from the Principality of Compiano is that it features an image of Saint Francis of Assisi, the patron saint of animals and the environment, on its reverse side. This highlights the importance of Catholicism in the region during the 17th century and the influence of the Franciscan order.
