Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 4 Cavalli - Ferdinando IV 1804 coin from the Kingdom of Naples (Italian States) is that it was minted during a time of great political and social change in Italy. The coin was issued in 1804, just a few years before the Napoleonic Wars, which had a significant impact on the Italian peninsula. The coin's design, featuring four horses and the image of King Ferdinand IV, reflects the influence of the French Revolution and the Enlightenment, which were spreading across Europe at the time.
