| Aanvullende informatie |
Francesco I ascended to the Neapolitan throne in 1825 following the death of his father Ferdinando I, making this issue one of the first struck under his name. His reign lasted only six years before his son Ferdinando II inherited a kingdom already straining under the contradictions of post-Restoration absolutism. The tornese denomination itself was a legacy accounting unit awkwardly rationalized into the Bourbon monetary system after Napoleon's brother-in-law Murat had modernized Neapolitan coinage on French decimal lines — a reform the restored Bourbons kept in practice while erasing it in name.
