Italian Occupation. Vittorio Emanuele III aluminum-bronze Prova .05 Lek 1940-R MS64 NGC, Rome mint, KM-Pr56, Pag-413 (R4), Gig-P8 (R4). A wonderful addition to the coveted Prova series of Albania witnessed here in the smallest denomination. Near-Gem with seemingly boundless flash that elevates polychromatic hues concentrated towards the peripheries. The sheer paucity of certified examples, now numbering at three, confirms the piece's status as an R4 and thus worthy of additional consideration. From the Meduno Collection of Italian Provas
