| Beschrijving voorzijde | Draped bust of Ferdinand IV, King of the Two Sicilies, facing right, with naturalistic portraiture characteristic of late 18th-century Neapolitan coinage. The effigy is uncrowned and shows the king with curled hair. The encircling legend reads FERDINAN. IV SICILIAR. ET HIE. REX, with a pellet stop and mintmark P at the base of the bust. The field is slightly concave and shows typical milled production of the Naples Mint. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The United States of the Ionian Islands was a curious political construction — a nominally independent republic established in 1815 under British protection following the Napoleonic Wars, though this issue predates even that formal arrangement, struck during the provisional British administration that followed the collapse of French control. The coinage was denominated in para, a Ottoman monetary unit, reflecting the economic reality of a population still conducting trade on Turkish terms despite the change in overlords.
KM#22.2 is distinguished from 22.1 by its edge treatment.
