Parma. Maria Luigia 5 Lire 1815 MS65 NGC, KM-C30, Dav-204. An immense planchet that is evenly draped in gunmetal patina, showing full underlying luster that radiates from below the tone and hints of amber color that dot the legends. Highpoint definition is front and center on this selection, with a spectacular amount of detailing noted throughout the portrait and reverse arms. From a fleeting series, this current offering is the only one of its date to hurdle the Gem plateau, and as such, is a worthy representative of the issue.
Estimate: 4000-5000 USD
