Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 32 Soldi coin from the Duchy of Milan is that it features an image of Charles V, the Holy Roman Emperor, on one side, and the coat of arms of the Duchy of Milan on the other. This coin was minted during Charles V's reign, which lasted from 1535 to 1556, and was used as a standard circulation coin in the Italian States. The fact that it was made of silver and weighs 10.98 grams suggests that it was a valuable and significant coin during its time.
