Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Carlino - Carlo VI 1730-1733 coin from the Kingdom of Naples (Italian States) is that it was minted during the reign of King Charles VI, who was also known as Charles III of Spain. This coin was part of a series of coins minted during his reign that featured a bust of the king on one side and the coat of arms of the Kingdom of Naples on the other. The coin was made of silver and weighed 2.1 grams, which was a relatively small weight for a coin at that time. Despite its small size, the coin was widely used in the Kingdom of Naples and surrounding regions, and it remains a popular collector's item among numismatists today.
