ITALY. 100 Lire, 1883-R. NGC AU Details--Scratches.
Fr-18; KM-22; Gig-3; Mont-03. The only post-unification large Italian gold coin within reach of the average collector, and even these usually come with a steep price tag. The piece offered is quite presentable, the AU designation stemming from a minor rim tap at 4 o'clock on the obverse. The devices and portrait are fully detailed, with very little actual wear evident. The details scratched grade is the result of a small area near the second "A" in "D'ITALIA" and only noticeable upon inspection. The low opening bid may perhaps allow the addition of this scarce and in demand coin at an attractive entry-level price. NGC AU Details--Scratches.
Ex: Stack's March 1985, Lot #359.
Estimate: $2500.00- $3500.00
