Quattrino
The quattrino is an ancient Italian currency denomination largely used in Central Italy, especially in Tuscany and Rome.
History[edit]
Its name derives from the Latin quater denari, because its value was equal to four denari. Consequently, its value was one third of a soldo. It disappeared after the unification of Italy in 1861, when the Italian lira was introduced as an equivalent of the french franc.[dubious ]
