Interesting fact
The 3 Cagliaresi coin was issued during the reign of King Charles VI (Carlo VI) in 1712-1713, and it features an image of the king on one side and the coat of arms of the Kingdom of Sardinia on the other. What's interesting about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in the region. The Kingdom of Sardinia was facing financial difficulties and was struggling to maintain its independence in the face of foreign invasions and internal conflicts. Despite these challenges, the kingdom continued to issue coins like the 3 Cagliaresi, which served as a symbol of its sovereignty and authority. Today, this coin is a valuable collector's item that provides a glimpse into the history and culture of the region during that time.
