| Additional information |
Carlo VI ruled Naples as an absentee sovereign from Vienna, and the chronic tension between his Habsburg administration and local Neapolitan authorities made consistent coin production a bureaucratic ordeal throughout his reign. The 24 Grana denomination was introduced to address a persistent mid-range gap in Neapolitan silver coinage, though it never fully displaced the older carlino-based accounting habits of the city's merchants.
1730 fell just two years before Carlo lost Naples entirely to the Bourbon claimant during the War of Polish Succession — making late issues of this type the last struck under Habsburg authority in the kingdom.
