Comment
Known as the denaro "con Beata Vergine."Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an image of the Blessed Virgin Mary, which was a common feature on coins during the Middle Ages, as the Catholic Church held significant influence over the minting of coins during that time.
