Interesting fact
The Pattern 20 Lire - Victor Emmanuel III (Pattern) 1927 from Italy made of Silver weighing 15g is a rare and unique coin. One interesting fact about this coin is that it was designed by the Italian sculptor and engraver, Giuseppe Romagnoli, who was known for his work on various Italian coins and medals during the early 20th century. The coin's design features a portrait of Victor Emmanuel III, the King of Italy from 1900 to 1946, on the obverse, and an image of the Italian coat of arms on the reverse. The coin was minted in 1927 as a pattern coin, meaning it was not intended for circulation but rather as a trial or sample coin. As a result, only a limited number of these coins were produced, making them highly sought after by collectors.
