Italy
Piedmont Republic. Republic 1/2 Scudo Anno VII (1799) MS66 NGC, KM-C2. From the Piedmont Republic, this selection displays argent-gray surfaces that are lightly draped with lavender-graphite tone at the outer registers and a voluminous champagne glow that easily brightens the designs with a quick turn of the wrist. This singular issue presents a rather small mintage, and is of great interest to the collector when encountered so fine. Rather choice in hand, showing an expert strike with bold, highpoint detail easily observed throughout, and incredible luster that glistens from edge to edge.
