Interesting fact
The 1 Osella - Lodovico Manin (Double Weight) 1789 coin from the Republic of Venice (Italian States) is interesting because it was minted during a time of great political and economic change in the region. The coin was issued during the reign of Lodovico Manin, who was the last Doge of Venice before the fall of the Republic in 1797. This coin was minted as a double weight version of the standard Osella coin, which was equivalent to 1/20th of a Venetian ducat. The coin's design features an image of Lodovico Manin on one side and the Venetian coat of arms on the other. It was made of silver and weighs 19.42 grams. Despite its historical significance, the coin is not widely available, and its value is mainly collectible.
