Aanvullende informatie

Carlo III's Sicilian coinage of 1733 was struck just as he consolidated control of the island following the War of the Polish Succession — his campaign through Naples and Sicily in that year effectively ended over two decades of Habsburg domination. The half tarí was a denomination with deep roots in the Arab-Norman monetary system of medieval Sicily, the word "tarí" itself derived from the Arabic "ṭarī," meaning fresh-struck.

Spahr's reference remains the essential catalog for this series, and his attribution distinguishes several die marriages within this type.
