Rugser:
Sorry  :-[ :-[ 

You excuse the error.... the first one is this.

yafet_rasnal:
The coins are a grano of Ferdinando I of Aragona (1458-1494), king of Sicily and Naples, struck in the mint of Naples. There're many legend varieties, but the second coin seems this
Cagiati 4
+ FERDINANDVS : DGR
+ SICILIE : IERVS : VN

Rugser:
Thank Lor  ;) ;)

ps.

It is this the King that has given the caravels to  Christopher Columbus for the discovery of America?

No Ser, not the same person even if they were cousins.
