Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the coin is that it was issued during the papacy of Clement XI, who was known for his efforts to reform the Catholic Church and his support for the arts. The coin's design, which features an image of the Pope with his pastoral staff, reflects his role as the spiritual leader of the Catholic Church.
