Umberto I Lira 1892-R MS63 NGC, Rome mint, KM24.1, MIR-1103e (R2), Gig-39 (R2), Mont-51 (R2). Mintage: 32,000. Virtually immaculate quality for this issue that can hardly be said to come as such, when it is encountered at all, the date carrying the second lowest mintage in the series. Resoundingly lustrous over both sides, the obverse edging on Prooflike quality when viewed head-on, this specimen admits hardly the least imperfection--an array of khaki, cornflower, and argent patina nicely highlighting the overall exceptional preservation of the piece.
