Selections from the Eric P. Newman Collection of World Coins. Papal States. Clemente XI gold 1/2 Scudo d'oro Year 17 (1716), Rome mint, Fr-189, Berman-2367, MS63 NGC. A very attractive coin in amazing condition, depicting Clemente XI on the obverse and a half-length bust of St. Peter looking over his shoulder on the reverse. There are a few very minor deposits on the obverse that do not detract from the overall eye appeal of the piece.
