Additional information

Filippo V's hold on Naples was legally established by the 1701 Grand Alliance's counter-claim, and militarily contested almost immediately — the War of the Spanish Succession made southern Italy a secondary theater but a genuinely unstable one. Austrian forces under Daun took Naples in 1707, ending Bourbon administration of the kingdom entirely and terminating this issue mid-series. Coins struck in the final year of this window would have entered circulation just as the political settlement collapsed.
