One interesting fact about the 20 Soldi coin from the Kingdom of Piedmont-Sardinia is that it was issued during a time of great political and social change in Italy. The coin was minted during the reign of Victor Amadeus III, who was the King of Sardinia from 1773 to 1796. During his reign, the kingdom faced significant challenges, including the French Revolution and the subsequent Napoleonic Wars. Despite these challenges, the kingdom was able to maintain its independence and stability, and the 20 Soldi coin remains a testament to the kingdom's resilience and endurance.
