Naples & Sicily. Ferdinand I 120 Grana 1818 AU58 PCGS, KM281. Large head type. With only a single example graded higher by PCGS, this lightly golden, silvery piece exhibits a level of refinement and a cleanliness to the fields typically reserved for fully Choice examples. Struck from clearly strained dies, numerous die cracks visible across the surfaces and evidence of a flip-over double-strike above the king's head, is quite remarkable that such a stunning specimen was produced at all.
