Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 2 Lire coin from the Duchy of Lucca is that it features an image of Carlo Ludovico I, who was the reigning Duke of Lucca from 1824 until his death in 1847. He was a member of the House of Bourbon and was known for his efforts to modernize and develop the Duchy during his rule. The coin's design was likely meant to honor and commemorate his leadership and legacy.
