Interesting fact

The ½ Soldo coin from the County of Gorizia (Italian States) made of Copper and weighing 1.20 g was minted during the reign of Charles VI (1733-1762). It's interesting to note that Charles VI was the last Holy Roman Emperor, and his reign marked the end of the Holy Roman Empire. This coin is a piece of history that represents the end of an era and the transition to a new period in European history.
