Interesting fact
The 1 Sovrano - Francis I 1835 coin from the Kingdom of Lombardy-Venetia (Italian States) is interesting because it was minted during a time of great political and social change in Italy. The coin was issued during the reign of Francis I, who was the first king of a unified Italy and played a key role in the country's Risorgimento, or unification movement. The coin's design features an image of Francis I on one side and the coat of arms of the Kingdom of Lombardy-Venetia on the other, symbolizing the newfound unity and independence of Italy.
