Interesting fact

The interesting fact about this coin is that it features the image of a lamb on one side, which is the origin of the name "agnus dei" or "lamb of God" in Latin. This image was a symbol of purity and innocence, and it was commonly used in medieval times to represent Christ as the sacrificial lamb.
