Naples. Neapolitan Republic 12 Carlini Anno 7 (1799) MS61 NGC, KM232, Dav-1410. Struck during the Parthenopean Republic this attractive selection features a standing allegorical figure holding a pole topped with a liberty cap. Wholly pleasing surfaces exhibit a base of silvery-gray with brighter accents residing within the legends and protected areas. The devices express Mint-State definition throughout, and other than some light handling and a minor obverse planchet flaw, this piece is outstanding. An excellent representative of this fleeting type, rarely encountered in such desirable quality, and highly-coveted as such. Lasting roughly six months, the Parthenopean Republic was established in the Kingdom of Naples during the French Revolutionary Wars after advancing French forces deposed King Ferdinand VI.

Estimate: 5000-6000 USD
