Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Oncia - Carlo 1733-1734 coin from the Kingdom of Sicily (Italian States) is that it was minted during the reign of King Charles VII of Naples, who was also known as Charles III of Spain. This coin was part of a series of gold coins that were minted during his reign to promote trade and commerce in the region. The coin's design features the king's portrait on one side and the coat of arms of the Kingdom of Sicily on the other, and its gold content makes it a valuable collector's item for numismatists today.
