Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during a time of great political and economic change in the region. The Lordship of Mesocco, where the coin was minted, was a small territory in the Grisons region of Switzerland, and it was during this period that the region was undergoing significant political and economic reforms. The coin itself is a reflection of this change, as it features the image of Johann Jakob Trivulzio, who was a prominent figure in the region at the time and played a significant role in shaping its political and economic landscape.
