This specimen was lot 2808 in Sincona sale 80 (Zürich, October 2022), where it sold for 140 CHF (about US$168 including buyer's fees). The catalog description[1] noted, "ITALY | Toskana, Ferdinando III di Lorena, 1814-1824. 10 Soldi 1821, Firenze. About uncirculated." This obscure type was struck 1821 and 1823 in Florence and lacks a photo in the SCWC. As the coin states, ten soldi was half a lira.
Recorded mintage: unknown.
