Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Doppia coin from the Kingdom of Piedmont-Sardinia is that it was minted during a time of great political and social change in Italy. The coin was issued during the reign of Charles Emmanuel IV, who was the King of Sardinia and Duke of Savoy from 1797 to 1802. This period saw the rise of the French Revolution and the subsequent Napoleonic Wars, which had a significant impact on the Italian states. The coin's mintage was likely a response to the economic and political instability of the time, as it was made of gold and had a relatively high denomination, indicating its value as a medium of exchange. Despite the challenges of the time, the coin remains a valuable piece of numismatic history, offering a glimpse into the economic and political climate of late 18th and early 19th century Italy.
