Tuscany. Alessandro de Medici Teston ND (1532-1537) XF45 PCGS, MIR-103. Dies by Benvenuto Cellini. Very scarce in any condition, and a type that has been seen only a handful of times in auction records. Moderately circulated and certainly on the upper end of what is seen for most survivors, with a blanket of steel tone gracing the surfaces against subtle clay-red and blue accents.
