Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of Francis I, who was the first king of the Lombardy-Venetia kingdom, which was a short-lived state that existed from 1815 to 1859. The coin's design features the king's portrait on one side and the coat of arms of the kingdom on the other. The use of silver in the coin's minting was also significant, as it reflected the value placed on the precious metal at the time.
