Italian Colony. Vittorio Emanuele III silver Matte Prova 1/2 Rupia 1910-R MS65 Matte NGC, Rome mint, KM-Pr7, Pag-395 (R2), Gig-P2 (R2). A wholly appreciable representative fully benefitting from its prominent Matte finish and seemingly medallic appearances. Light granularity within the design lends to the coveted assignment, where the majority of examples coming to market usually lack, being of the standard brilliant finish. While not at the level of preservation seen with the PR67 Lissner example, its elevated eye appeal is undeniable. Ex. Carl F. Chirico Jr. Collection (Bowers and Merena, March 2008, Lot 5796) From the Meduno Collection of Italian Provas
