| Beschrijving voorzijde | Draped bust of Charles III (Carlo di Borbone) facing right, depicted with flowing curled hair and a laurel wreath, the truncation showing a draped shoulder. The royal effigy is rendered in a Baroque style characteristic of early 18th-century Sicilian coinage. A circular Latin legend surrounds the portrait, with pelleted stops separating the abbreviated royal titles. The coin's milled edge border is clearly visible at the periphery. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Carlo here is Charles of Bourbon, who arrived in Sicily in 1734 after sweeping through the peninsula with a Spanish army and wresting the kingdom from Austrian Hapsburg control. The oncia — Sicily's traditional gold unit, rooted in the older onza coinage — was among the first issues struck in his name, asserting Bourbon authority over an island that had changed hands between Spain, Savoy, and Austria three times in the preceding two decades.
The 1733 date on some examples predates his formal coronation, reflecting the provisional nature of early mint production under a conquering claimant not yet officially king.
