Italy
Venice. Lodovico Manin Tallero 1789 MS62 NGC, KM747, Dav-1575. An exalted representative for the type almost always encountered with some sort of externally caused flaw. Although a bit flat in the strike, this wholesome piece persists with a commendable articulation within the details, and possesses a delicious tonal blend of steely grey and pastel lilac.
An elite example worthy of an elite suitor.
