Tuscany. Cosimo III de'Medici Testone 1676 MS63 NGC, Florence mint, KM-Unl., CNI-XIIb.18, MIR-332/2 (R). Marvelous and instantly stunning, the surfaces, boldly fleshed-out by thick die polish, possessing a sort of glossy luster that quite simply never appears on the minor silver coinage of this period. All but the most insignificant incidences of contact are entirely absent, leading even the scrupulous observer to conclude that this coin must appear very close to how it did when it first left the mint.
