Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Carlino coin from the Kingdom of Naples is that it features an image of King Charles V on one side and the coat of arms of the Kingdom of Naples on the other. The coat of arms includes a shield with the symbols of the three kingdoms that made up the territory: the Kingdom of Naples, the Kingdom of Sicily, and the Kingdom of Sardinia. This design represents the unity of these three kingdoms under the rule of Charles V.
