Comment
The only two coins minted under Humbert II were obols and deniers.
Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Humbert II, who was the last Count of Savoy and later became the first King of Italy. The coin features an image of Humbert II on one side and a cross on the other, symbolizing the county's allegiance to the Catholic Church.
