Comment
The NGC website mistakenly shows an image of this coin as catalog reference C32Interesting fact
The 10 Quattrini coin from the Kingdom of Etruria featuring Louis I of Bourbon is interesting because it was minted during a brief period of French rule in Tuscany, and it is one of the few coins that were produced during this time.
