Vittorio Emanuele III 5 Lire 1914-R MS63 NGC, Rome mint, KM56, Dav-144, Pag-708. Hailing from a highly regarded series considered among the most beautiful of the 20th century, perhaps even of all time, this example takes the appeal of its type to further heights, elevated by a technically choice degree of preservation and corresponding visual charm. Satiny luster pervades throughout, complemented by a decades-old cabinet tone of silver and graphite which graces the surfaces, adding an air of originality to what is doubtlessly already a highly desirable representative of its type.
