Though minted for the Tuscan duchy, these elegant fractional issues were actually struck at the legendary mint of Milan, showcasing the exceptional craftsmanship and engraving style of the Austrian-dominated Lombardy region of the era.\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"2\"\u003eThe obverse displays the beautifully detailed, crowned coat of arms of the Cybo-Malaspina family, containing the dual-headed Austrian eagle and the shield of Este, delicately flanked by two thorny branches. The reverse displays a clean, bold, and classically styled presentation of the denomination and date within a simple, elegant field. For collectors of pre-unification Italian States or late-baroque European silver, this scarce issue offers a wonderful opportunity to own a premium, historically rich specimen from a short-lived and fascinating regency.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ClassyCoins","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52646649102648,"sku":"336689897250","price":104.89,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0702\/1743\/3400\/files\/57_272d8a1d-53a6-46ed-a126-c5ed90e9a28f.jpg?v=1784163187","url":"https:\/\/classycoins.com\/products\/1792-italy-duchy-of-massa-carrara-4-soldi-maria-beatrice-deste-milan-mint-28","provider":"classycoins.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
