Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Cagliarese coin from the Kingdom of Sardinia is that it was minted during the reign of Charles V, who was the Holy Roman Emperor and King of Spain. This coin was part of a series of coins minted during his reign, which aimed to standardize the currency across the Italian States. Despite its small weight of 0.60 grams, the coin was an important part of the economy of the time and was widely used in trade and commerce.
