Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 5 Sols - Honore II 1644 coin from Monaco is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the coat of arms of the Grimaldi family, who ruled Monaco at the time. This shield is located on the reverse side of the coin, beneath the number "5" and is a distinctive feature that sets this coin apart from other coins of the same denomination.
