AMADEO I (1871-1873). To the Mediterranean Squad. Trip to Spain of the new king. (Ae. 15.88g / 29mm). December 26, 1870. Engraver: G. Sellán. (VQ 14379). Almost Extremely Fine. Crown removed, mark in the area. Strange.
The new king would arrive by sea at the port of Cartagena on December 30, 1870. A few days later on January 2, 1871, Amadeo presented in the Atocha basilica in Madrid, his respect and condolence at the tomb of Prim, his principal defender and that he had been assassinated a few days before. Presented by his supporters as a promoter of progressivism and modernity, the first \u201cdemocratic king\u201d in our history never had enough political support or from important layers of society to consolidate his reign.
