Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Bianco - Vespasiano Gonzaga ND (1574-1577) coin from the Duchy of Sabbioneta is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the initials "VG" (for Vespasiano Gonzaga) placed above the coat of arms on the obverse side of the coin. This distinctive feature sets it apart from other coins of the same era and issuing authority.
