One interesting fact about the 20 Soldi coin from the Duchy of Milan is that it features an image of Filippo III, who was the ruler of the Duchy at the time, on one side, and the coat of arms of the Duchy on the other. This coin was minted in 1608 and was made of silver, weighing 5.4 grams. It's a rare and valuable coin among collectors today, especially those interested in the history of the Italian States.
