| Aanvullende informatie |
Ferdinando IV's reign over the Kingdom of Naples was politically precarious throughout the 1790s, with the French Revolution destabilizing every monarchy in Europe and Neapolitan court policy swinging between accommodation and outright hostility toward Paris. These years saw the kingdom draw closer to Britain — Admiral Nelson would arrive in Naples in 1798 — and the financial pressures of maintaining that posture were felt at the mint.
The 60 Grana denomination had an awkward place in the Neapolitan tariff system, functioning primarily in larger mercantile transactions rather than daily exchange. MIR 379 distinguishes several bust varieties across this emission window.
