| Additional information |
San Marino's gold coinage has long been produced under contract at the Italian State Mint in Rome, and this 2004 issue is no exception. The republic's numismatic program generates revenue disproportionate to its size — a fiscal strategy dating to the 1970s when San Marino began aggressively courting collector markets following Italy's decimalization disruptions.
The "Brooch" designation refers to a specific series within San Marino's collector gold, not a wearable piece.
