Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 3 Tornesi coin from the Kingdom of Naples is that it features an image of King Ferdinand IV on one side and the coat of arms of the Kingdom of Naples on the other. The coat of arms includes a shield with the symbols of the three kingdoms that made up the Italian States: the Two Sicilies, Sardinia, and the Papal States. This design represents the political unity of these regions under the rule of the Bourbon dynasty, which was a significant historical event in the region.
