Interesting fact

The 3 Soldi coin from the County of Gorizia (Italian States) made of Copper and weighing 15.7g was minted during the reign of Carlo VI in 1734. What's interesting about this coin is that it features an image of the ruler on one side and the coat of arms of the County of Gorizia on the other, which was a common design feature of coins during that time period. Additionally, the use of copper as the material for the coin was also common for coins of lower denominations during the 18th century.
