<p>[QUOTE=&quot;serafino, post: 8455916, member: 74574&quot;]Hi, that is the last 10 Tornesi coin minted by the Kingdom - &quot;Regno Delle Due Sicilie&quot; (Kingdom of the Two Sicilies) in Napoli (Naples). Apparently they also minted some at the Papal mint in Rome.&nbsp;&nbsp; It was the largest copper coin they minted, 31.18 Grams.&nbsp; The grooved edge on the coin I believe was only used on the 10 Tornesi coins.&nbsp; The King on the obverse is &quot;Francesco II di Borbone&quot;, the last king of that Kingdom. They would be defeated by the Northern Italians in the Italian war of Unification in around 1861.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
