This specimen was lot 71124 in Stack's Bowers Collector's Choice sale (Santa Ana, CA, May 2018), where it sold for $80. The catalog description[1] noted, "ITALY. Lira, 1924-R. NGC MS-64. KM-62; Mont-206. These pieces weren't officially coins (though minted in Rome by government authorization) but 'good for' tokens issued to retire paper money printed during World War One. They are accompanied by nickel two lira and fifty Centesimi. They served the same purpose [as] the French aluminum bronze "Chamber of Commerce" tokens issued at the same time; to delay acknowledgment of the collapse of the lira."
