Interesting fact
The 15 Centesimi coin from the Kingdom of Lombardy-Venetia, featuring Francis Joseph I, has an interesting fact. Despite being made of copper and weighing 16.4 grams, it was not widely accepted in circulation due to its low value and the prevalence of larger denomination coins in circulation at the time.
