ITALY. Sardinia. Scudo, 1755. Carlo Emanuele III. NGC AU-55.
Dav-1494; KM-48; Cud-946. A handsome representative of this first date of an eight-year issue. The strike is bold and even with nicely preserved mark free surfaces complemented by dove grey tone in the open areas and atop of the devices while the protected areas display rich slate patina with iridescent hues that pop out when tilted in the light. A highly attractive and original looking example of the type sure to spirited bidding from collectors.
Estimate: $1200.00- $1600.00
