Italy
Selections from the Eric P. Newman Collection of World Coins. Venice. Giovanni Corner I gold 2 Scudi d'oro ND (1625-29), Fr-1460, Paolucci-4, AU55 NGC. A scarce and high-quality piece. The last piece auctioned publicly was sold by Stack's in January, 2011 for a hammer of $4,500. The present example is arguably nicer, as it does not have the same die breaks as the other. A very solid Italian multiple in gold.
Estimate: 3000-4000 USD
