Additional information

Part of Italy's ongoing "Italian Regions" series, this issue belongs to a program that assigns each region its own commemorative release — a project that has generated more collector interest abroad than domestically. The Tuscany entry was struck at the Rome mint under IPZS, which has managed Italian state coinage since its consolidation in 1928 under Mussolini's restructuring of public printing and minting institutions.

Mintage for regional issues in this series has historically been capped in the low tens of thousands, keeping secondary market premiums modest but persistent.
