Interesting fact

The 50,000 lire coin from Italy features the Reggia di Caserta, a stunning palace in southern Italy. It's interesting to note that this coin was minted in 2001, but it still carries the name of the lira, which was the official currency of Italy until 2002, when it was replaced by the euro. This highlights the transition period when Italy was still using the lira but had already begun the process of adopting the euro.
