Comment
Slightly different design from KM# 29.Interesting fact
The ½ Soldo coin from the County of Gorizia (Italian States) featuring Leopoldo II, which was minted between 1791 and 1792, is notable for its unique design. The coin's obverse side features an image of Leopoldo II, while the reverse side bears an image of the County of Gorizia's coat of arms. This design was used for a short period of time before the coin was replaced by a new design in 1793. As a result, coins with this design are now considered rare and highly sought after by collectors.
