★ Beautifully Preserved and Possessing Incredible Artistic Style ★

ITALY. Savoy. 4 Scudi d'Oro, 1641. Turin Mint. Carlo Emanuele II with Cristina di Borbone-Francia as Regent. NGC AU-55.
Fr-1071.1. Obverse: CHR FRAN CAR EMAN DVCES SAB, jugate draped busts of Carlo and Cristina, his mother and regent, right; Reverse: P P PEDEMON REGES CYPRI, crowned and garnished coat-of-arms. A rather SCARCE piece, this impressive, well struck example is unsurprisingly the finest in the NGC census. Some minor wear on the high points is evident, though it is even, and allows for some brilliance to remain. A minor flan flaw on the obverse is noted, but not at all distracting.
Ex: Stack's (1/2010) Lot # 924.
Estimate: $10000.00- $15000.00
