Tuscany. Charles Louis 10 Lire 1805 MS64 NGC, KM-C49.1. A select representative, struck during the Regency of Charles Louis and his mother Maria Louis, featuring their conjoined busts surrounded by mauve-tinged surfaces. Other than a bit of softness on the reverse shield, which corresponds to the bold central portraits on the obverse, this near-Gem expresses light handling and a few minuscule pockmarks. From a fleeting series, this conditionally choice specimen is presently tied with one other example at NGC in this top certified category.
