Interesting fact
The 10 Centesimi coin from the Kingdom of Lombardy-Venetia, featuring Francis Joseph I, has an interesting fact. Despite being made of copper and weighing 17.5 grams, it was not widely accepted in circulation due to its low value and the prevalence of higher denomination coins in circulation at the time.
