A fascinating and passionate journey through the history of the “red” of Borgo Panigale. This visual tale unfolds the story of Italian motorcycling, beginning with the grandeur of the historic Ducati facility in Borgo Panigale, inaugurated in 1936.
It recounts the emblematic models of the Bolognese brand: from the revolutionary Cucciolo of 1949, the motorcycle that penned the opening chapters of the Ducati saga, to the immortal design icon, the 916, and culminating in the Panigale, a flawless blend of power and elegance. A tribute to the history of Italian motorcycling.
Obverse: A view of the historic Ducati factory in Borgo Panigale, Bologna, from 1935, on which the Ducati logo is highlighted at the top right. Around it, the inscription " REPUBBLICA ITALIANA ".
Reverse: The Ducati 916 motorcycle, designed by Massimo Tamburini, described in 2014 by Motorcycle News magazine as «the most beautiful motorcycle of the last 50 years». On the right, «2024», year of the coin’s issue; at the bottom, the value «5 EURO» and «R», identifying the Mint of Rome; on the left, the name of the designer «A.Vecchio»; above, arch-shaped, «DUCATI».
