Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Carlino coin from the Kingdom of Naples is that it features an image of King Alfonso I on one side, while the other side bears the coat of arms of the kingdom, which includes a shield with the symbol of the House of Aragon, a dynasty that ruled the kingdom during that time.
