Additional information

Ferdinando III returned to the Grand Duchy of Tuscany in 1814 after Napoleon's collapse, having spent years in exile while his territories were absorbed into the French imperial system. The Pisan mint, subordinated during the French period, resumed production under Tuscan authority, though its output was limited compared to the Florence operation. The half Francescone series of 1819–1820 represents a compressed window of production before the denomination's issue pattern shifted.

The Zecca di Pisa was formally suppressed in 1846.
