Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 40 Lire 1848 coin from the Kingdom of Lombardy (Italian States) is that it was minted during a time of great political and social change in Italy. The coin was issued in 1848, which was a year of revolution and uprising across Europe, and particularly in Italy, where there was a growing movement for independence and unity. The coin's design, which features an image of the crowned arms of the House of Savoy, reflects the influence of the ruling monarchy at the time. Despite the turmoil of the period, the coin's gold content and intricate design make it a valuable and sought-after collector's item today.
