Description: Diameter: 38 mm Weight: 27.13 g Up for sale today is a rare and historical coin from the Kingdom of Naples - a 1805 Piastre of 120 Grana. This beautiful coin bears the likeness of Ferdinand IV, the King of Naples and Sicily, who ruled from 1759 until his deposition in 1806, and again following restoration in 1816 until his death in 1825. Ferdinand IV was born in Naples on January 12, 1751, as the third son of King Charles III of Spain. In 1759, at the age of just eight, he ascended to the throne of Naples and became one of the youngest monarchs in European history. Under his rule, Naples experienced a period of relative stability and prosperity, with the arts and sciences flourishing. However, the rise of Napoleon Bonaparte and his conquests across Europe would have a significant impact on Ferdinand IV's life and reign. When war broke out between France and Austria in 1805, Ferdinand signed a treaty of neutrality with the former, but a few days later he allied himself with Austria and allowed an Anglo-Russian force to land at Naples Despite this alliance, Naples was not spared from Napoleon's ambitions. In 1805, Napoleon's armies marched into Naples, and Ferdinand IV was forced to flee to Sicily. He would spend the rest of the Napoleonic Wars in Sicily, returning in 1816 to declare himself as "King of Two Siscilies." He ruled over Naples and Sicily until his death in 1825. This coin is a testament to the tumultuous reign of Ferdinand IV and the impact of Napoleon on his life and kingdom. It is a tangible piece of history that captures the political and social changes that swept through Europe in the early 19th century. Don't miss your chance to own a piece of this fascinating era.
