Comment
This coin has no KM# and is different both in obverse and reverse from KM#255Interesting fact
The 24 Lire 1792 coin from Genoa is interesting because it was minted during a time of great change and upheaval in Europe. The French Revolution had just begun, and the Genoese Republic was facing political and economic instability. Despite these challenges, the coin still maintains a high level of craftsmanship and beauty, with its gold content and detailed design. It's a testament to the resilience and skill of the mint workers and the people of Genoa during a difficult period in history.
