3 Tarí - Carlo III

Carlo III — later Carlos III of Spain — was barely fourteen when he became King of Sicily in 1734, but this issue predates that reign entirely. These tarí were struck under his authority as Duke of Parma and heir to the Two Sicilies claim, during the brief window before the War of Polish Succession reshuffled the Italian map and handed him Naples and Sicily outright. The Palermo mint produced this type across the MIR-catalogued die variants, with Spahr's numbering distinguishing at least seven obverse and reverse pairings across the 1730–1732 span.
