Watch List notes:

*Gaspare Mola (1567-1640), Cosimo II de' Medici, 4th Grand Duke of Tuscany (1609-21), lead medal, 1610, young bust right, rev., Grand Ducal coronet and sceptre with the Medici balls, 40mm (cf. Pollard Bargello 461 = Vannel & Toderi 64-65 in gold), pierced, very fine and rare [Clifford lot 92]. The reverse design is copied from an earlier Medici medal by Michele Mazzafirri. Mola's head of the young Cosimo influenced the portrait medal by Dupré of 1613 and, later on, Selvi's version from the Medici series made in the 18th century. (150 - 200)
