Vittorio Emanuele III gold 100 Lire 1912-R MS62 NGC, Rome mint, KM50, Fr-26. Mintage: 4,946. A scarce issue produced in limited numbers, shown here with gleaming apricot coloration, as well as micro-abrasions over both sides that ultimately prevent the Choice designation, but are commonly encountered for the type. Considerable mint bloom remains active on this beautifully designed piece, elevating its eye appeal, and all but confirming interest from collectors of 20th century world gold searching for a Mint State example from this fleeting series.
