Vittorio Emanuele II 5 Lire 1865 T-BN MS66 NGC, Turin mint, KM17. The more common date from this three-year series--but conditionally rare so fine--showing mottled, argent-gray surfaces and hues of russet color in a crescent-shaped pattern at the rims. The open expanses appear free of any mishandling, and as such, this visually alluring crown delights the eye from every angle.
