Interesting fact

The 1 Centesimo coin from the Duchy of Parma and Piacenza, featuring Maria Luigia, is interesting because it was minted during a time of great change and political upheaval in Italy. The coin was issued in 1830, just a few years before the Duchy was annexed by the Kingdom of Sardinia, and eventually became part of the modern-day Italian state. Despite the tumultuous period in which it was minted, the coin remains a valuable piece of numismatic history, offering a glimpse into the economic and political climate of 19th-century Italy.
