Between rare coins that we could still have in our hands today, certainly there are Italian lire. Regret by many, convinced that we would be better off with the lira, in this article we want to see which are the rare Italian lira, the ones that are worth more and that, in every collection of rare coins, should ideally not be missing. The value of an Italian lira depends entirely on its state of preservation: if it is perfect (ie “uncirculated”, that is, as if it had just been issued) it is worth much more than a used and ruined coin.

Do you have the 5 lire of 1956? That’s why they are also worth 2 thousand euros
Not many young and old today who remember when in Italy there were still 5 lire there, a bit like 10 lire. For those who remember, however, it will be nice to know that the 5 lire that is worth more is the one issued in 1956. That year, in fact, only 400,000 “5 lire” were issued, and depending on the state of conservation they can be worth 50 to 1,500 euros.
The 10 lire of 1947
It is one of the lira that is worth the most, especially if well preserved. In this case, in fact, its value easily reaches 5,000 euros and beyond.
The 10 lire of 1954
Not as rare as the version from just 7 years earlier, but if uncirculated they can be worth up to around 70 euros. In this it is essential that they are well kept, otherwise their choices value a lot.
The 10 lire of 1955
We find yet another 10 lire in the ranking of the rarest Italian lire ever. These coins, if kept uncirculated, can be worth up to 20 euros each.
The 50 lire of 1958
Issued in 825,000 copies, they are not easily found and for this reason they can be worth from 20 euros to 2,000 euros. In the first case it is the sum paid by collectors for a coin in poor condition, in the second for a brilliant uncirculated coin.
The 100 lire of 1955
Issued in 8 million and 600,000 copies, it is certainly not a rare coin, but it is very difficult to find. If preserved well, uncirculated, it could be worth up to 1,200 euros.
The 500 lire of 1957
Rare Italian lire, how much are they worth?
As we have seen, the Italian lire have a value that varies from 20 euros up to 15,000 euros and more, it all depends on the circulation, how many are in circulation and the state of conservation. Within each collection of coins it would be necessary to have one or more rare lire, as they complete and enrich the total value.
