| Additional information |
The cagliarese was the smallest denomination in circulation on Sardinia under Savoyard rule, and Charles Emmanuel III struck these copper pieces at Cagliari specifically for island use — they were not interchangeable with mainland Piedmontese coinage. Sardinia had come to the House of Savoy only in 1720 via the Treaty of London, and the crown moved deliberately to impose its own monetary system over the existing Spanish colonial currency still circulating on the island.
CNI records multiple die variants across the 1732–1745 span, reflecting the long production run at the Cagliari mint.
