Papal States. Pius IX gold 100 Lire Anno XXI (1866)-R MS61 PCGS, Rome mint, KM1383, Fr-278. A lustrous and undeniably Mint State selection revealing consistently sharp striking detail and surfaces showing slight irregularities in the left obverse field, as made. The issue proves a consistent target of collectors for its low mintage of only 1,115 examples produced, and this offering comes within only two points of tying for the finest yet certified across both PCGS and NGC.
