Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 2 Bolognini - Giovanni II Bentivoglio coin is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the initials "G" and "B" on either side of the coat of arms, which stands for "Gio. Batista Bentivoglio" (Giovanni Battista Bentivoglio), the ruler of Bologna at the time the coin was minted. This distinctive feature sets it apart from other coins of the same era and makes it a sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
