Circulating coin of the Kingdom of Italy from the Fascist period, minted in Rome during the 18th year of the Fascist Era. The obverse features a realistic portrait of Vittorio Emanuele III, with well-defined features and slight wear visible at the highest points of the profile, consistent with an AU58 grade. The reverse shows a female allegory of Italy alongside the fasces, the regime's central symbol, with a balanced design and strong ideological charge. This specimen belongs to the non-magnetic variant with a reeded edge, maintaining a homogeneous metallic tone, clear reliefs, and a very attractive visual presence despite light circulation, making it a representative piece of notable historical interest within 20th-century Italian numismatics.
Disclaimer: For orders shipped outside the European Union, I want to make it absolutely clear that I ship from Spain. This means that if the package is sent to any country outside the European Union, and/or inside the EU that has a special tax agreement (for example: Canary Islands), it might be stopped in your local customs, and they might ask you to pay taxes. This is a customs legal procedure and is completely out of our control. Thank you for your understanding.
