ITALY. Cisalpine Republic. Scudo of 6 Lire, Year VIII (1800). Milan Mint. NGC MS-64 Prooflike.
KM-C-2; Mont-184; Gig-1; MIR-477. An remarkable example of this coveted issue, lovingly preserved since its meticulous production and featuring a world-class display of engraving by Guiseppe Salvirch that showcases an allegorical scene where the Cisalpine Republic stands before a seated France, depicted with a thematically-familiar rooster-topped helmet. The devices remain razor sharp and the fields are highly reflective with evidence of planchet preparation remaining visible on the reverse. This is currently the finest example of this type graded at NGC with the "PL" designation and is highly desirable thus.
Estimate: $2000.00- $3000.00
