| Aanvullende informatie |
Seborga is a small Italian village near the French border whose residents voted in 1995 to assert the territory's purported independence based on an 18th-century clerical oversight — specifically, the claim that the Principality of Seborga was never formally included in the 1713 Treaty of Utrecht nor any subsequent Italian unification documents. Giorgio Carbone, a flower grower elected "prince" by the townspeople, presided over the issuance of this coinage as part of a broader effort to establish the trappings of statehood. The coins were never legal tender anywhere recognized.
