Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Trillina coin is that it was used as a form of currency during a time of great cultural and artistic flourishing in Italy, particularly in the city of Milan, which was then the capital of the Duchy of Milan. The coin features an image of Galeazzo Maria Sforza, the ruler of the Duchy at the time, and its design reflects the Renaissance style that was popular during that period. Despite its small size and relatively low value, the Trillina coin is a unique piece of history that connects us to the rich cultural heritage of Italy's past.
