Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 2 Oncia, 60 Tari coin from the Kingdom of Sicily (Italian States) made of Gold (.906) weighing 8.815g is that it was minted during the reign of King Ferdinand III, who ruled from 1798 to 1825. This coin was part of a series of coins minted during his reign, which were designed to promote trade and commerce within the kingdom. The coin's design features an image of the king on one side and the coat of arms of the kingdom on the other, symbolizing the power and authority of the ruling monarchy. Despite being over 200 years old, this coin remains a valuable and sought-after collector's item among numismatists today.
