Lombardo-Venetian florin

The florin was the currency of Lombardy-Venetia (reduced to the sole Venetia three years before) between 1862 and 1866.

History
It replaced the lira at a rate of 1 florin = 3 lire. The florin was equivalent to the Austro-Hungarian florin. Although it was subdivided into 100 soldi rather than 100 kreutzers, Austrian coins circulated in Venetia. The only coins issued specifically for Venetia were copper $1/undefined$ and 1 soldo pieces. The name soldo was chosen due to the equivalence of the predecimal kreutzer and soldo, both worth $1/undefined$ of a Conventionsthaler.

The florin was replaced by the Italian lira at the rate of 1 lira = $40 1/2$ soldi (1 florin = 2.469 lire). This rate corresponded to the comparative silver contents of the lira and florin coins.
