Details
The first monetary issue of the Republic of San Marino dates back to 'October 1864. It was minted in 280,000. It was a five-gram copper coin worth 5 cents, depicting the The coat of arms of San Marino with three towers surmounted by a crown and surrounded by laurel branches and one of oak. Issued by the Royal Mint of Milan, it followed the first Monetary Convention Italian-Sammarinese of 1862, which established in art.24 that "the coins that the Republic believed over time of having to mint may have legal tender status in the Kingdom of Italy, provided that they are marked with the decimal system and have the same title and weight as those governing". The agreement, in its general extension, may be the act of establishment of the relationship between the two countries. The treaty, signed by the president of the Italian Urban Rattazzi and the Captains Regents Melchiorre Filippi and Domenico Fattori, represented the first true bilateral act between sovereign states which presupposed the legal equality of the contracting parties. 150 years since the that first coin, the Philatelic and Numismatic Office of San Marino, intended to "celebrate" the anniversary with the issue of a 2 Scudi in gold (finish proof). At the center of the reverse of the coin, designed by Uliana Pernazza, between two divergent branches of laurel, tied by a ribbon, are represented the value "2 SCUDI" and the year of issue "2014". On the obverse, the State Coat of Arms of the Republic, around, the inscription "REPUBBLICA OF SAN MARINO" and at the base, the name of the author Antonella Napolione.
