Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 10 Centesimi coin from the Napoleonic Kingdom of Italy is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was introduced in 1808, just a few years after Napoleon Bonaparte's military victories had led to the establishment of the French Empire, which included much of Italy. The coin's design features an image of Napoleon himself, reflecting his status as the dominant political figure of the time. Despite the turmoil of the period, the coin remained in circulation until 1813, when Napoleon's defeat marked the end of the Napoleonic Kingdom of Italy.
