Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was used as a form of currency in the Papal States, a region in central Italy that was ruled by the Pope from 756 to 1870. The coin's design and materials, such as the use of silver, reflect the economic and political influence of the Papacy during this time period.
