Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique blend of medieval and Renaissance elements in its design. The obverse side of the coin depicts the city's patron saint, St. Peter, in a Gothic-style archway, while the reverse side features a stylized image of a bracteate, a type of medieval coin, with intricate floral patterns and a Latin inscription. This blend of styles reflects the cultural and artistic influences of the time period in which the coin was minted.
