1824-1831 80 Lire Italian States Sardinia Charles Felix Gold Coin Cleaned (Random Year)
Own a remarkable piece of 19th-century European history with the 80 Lire Gold Coin from the Kingdom of Sardinia, minted during the reign of Charles Felix between 1824 and 1831. Containing 0.7465 troy oz of .900 fine gold with a weight of 25.8 grams, this large-format coin showcases the craftsmanship and monetary heritage of the Italian States prior to unification. While cleaned, it still retains its numismatic value and gold content, making it appealing to collectors and investors seeking historical bullion.
The 80 Lire denomination was one of the highest-value gold coins of the Sardinian monetary system, introduced under King Victor Emmanuel I and continued by his successor, Charles Felix. Born in 1765, Charles Felix ascended the throne in 1821 after his brother’s abdication. His reign saw reforms in administration, infrastructure development, and the strengthening of Sardinia’s economy, particularly through its maritime trade.
Struck at the Turin Mint, these coins feature the regal portrait of Charles Felix on the obverse, often paired with inscriptions of his royal title. The reverse depicts the crowned coat of arms of the House of Savoy, a dynastic symbol representing the ruling family’s authority over the Kingdom of Sardinia—territory that included not only the island itself but also Piedmont, Nice, and Savoy. These coins were a statement of both wealth and political power during a formative period in Italian history.
