Alessandro Fiamingo

La moneta da 2 Lire "Spiga" è una delle prime emissioni della Repubblica Italiana, nata subito dopo la fine della Seconda Guerra Mondiale e il referendum istituzionale del 2 giugno 1946. Questo conio rappresenta non solo un pezzo di numismatica, ma anche un simbolo della rinascita italiana.

Caratteristiche Tecniche

Valore nominale: 2 Lire

Anno di conio: 1946

Materiale: Italma (lega di alluminio, resistente e leggera)

Peso: 1,5 grammi

Diametro: 29,8 millimetri

Bordo: Liscio

Incisore: Giuseppe Romagnoli

Descrizione Artistica

Dritto:
Raffigura una testa femminile con i capelli raccolti, rivolta verso sinistra, allegoria dell'Italia. Lungo il bordo compare l'iscrizione "REPVBBLICA ITALIANA".

Rovescio:
Presenta una spiga di grano stilizzata, simbolo di fertilità, lavoro agricolo e rinascita economica. Alla base si trova il valore "L. 2" e l'anno "1946".

Contesto Storico
La moneta fu emessa in un'Italia ancora provata dalla guerra e in fase di ricostruzione. La scelta di rappresentare una spiga di grano rifletteva il desiderio di prosperità, pace e rinascita produttiva. La leggerezza della moneta e il materiale povero (Italma) sono testimonianza della difficile situazione economica del Paese in quel periodo.
