The specimen shown is from a type struck in Rome for Italy 1951-2000. It superseded a larger aluminum coin (KM 89) struck 1946-50 which is now quite scarce in nice condition. This date has a low mintage but enough were saved that it is not rare. The 1956 is very rare.
Recorded mintage: 2,090,000.
Specification: 1 g, aluminum, plain edge, 20.2 mm diameter.
Catalog reference: KM 92, Gig-306.
