Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 50 Lire - Victor Emmanuel III 1931-1933 coin from Italy is that it was minted during a time of significant political and social change in the country. The coin was introduced in 1931, just a year after Benito Mussolini's National Fascist Party came to power, and it remained in circulation until 1933, when Italy's transition to a fascist regime was complete. The coin's design, featuring a portrait of Victor Emmanuel III, the King of Italy at the time, and the fascist symbol of the fasces on the reverse, reflects this period of political upheaval and the rise of fascism in Italy.
