Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of Johann Jakob Trivulzio, who was a powerful condottiero, or mercenary captain, in Italy during the late 15th and early 16th centuries. He played a significant role in the political and military events of the time, and his coinage reflects his influence and power.
