Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 30 Tari - Ferdinando I 1793 coin from the Kingdom of Sicily (Italian States) is that it was minted during a time of great political and social change in the region. The coin was issued during the reign of Ferdinand I, who was the King of the Two Sicilies from 1759 until his death in 1825. This period saw significant upheaval, including the French Revolution and the subsequent Napoleonic Wars, which had a profound impact on the political landscape of Europe. Despite these challenges, the Kingdom of Sicily continued to issue coins, such as the 30 Tari, which were used for everyday transactions and remained in circulation for many years.
