I have a coin from the 1906 Milan International Exposition that is a 20 cent piece. It is about the size of a US quarter. It is in uncirculated condition.

Does anybody know the history of these coins, why they were made at the exposition and what they are worth if anything?

I don't have a scanner but I'm assuming that somebody knowledgeable about Italian coins will be able to help me.

    I remember seing such a coin offered on Ebay not too long ago and it sold at a pretty good price. I looked at the auction because there was some information about the coin, but now I can't find the auction anymore image Anyone know if it's possible to seach ended items on Ebay?

    The link that was pointed out is not exactly what I am wanting info about. That link is for a medal. Mine is a coin- a 20C coin made at the 1906 Expo. I think it was made to provide small change for postage and the like. However, the coin is not in any reference guide I can find.
