Interesting fact

The 2 Carlini Romani coin featuring Pius VI (Laurel Cartouche) from the Papal States, minted between 1794 and 1796, is interesting because it was one of the last coins issued by the Papal States before the French Revolutionary Army invaded and occupied Rome in 1798, leading to the establishment of the Roman Republic and the eventual abolition of the Papal States.
