Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Federico Landi ND (1622-1623) 2 Doppie ou double pistole coin from the Principality of Compiano (Italian States) is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Italy. The early 17th century saw the rise of city-states and the decline of feudalism, and coins like this one were used as a symbol of power and influence. Despite being made of gold, the coin was still used for everyday transactions, highlighting the wealth and prosperity of the region at the time.
