Papal States. Pius IX gold 100 Lire 1866-R Anno XXI MS63 NGC, KM1383. Fr-278. Magnificent in both size and appearance, this choice specimen dazzles with honey-gold, lightly reflective surfaces that support extremely crisp design features. A most popular type and highly collected as such, this first-date in the series carries an impressively low mintage of just 1,117 pieces. A scarce offering, especially in this select grade assignment.From The Alexander Collection
