This specimen was lot 57380 in Stack's Bowers NYINC sale (New York, January 2024), where it sold for $100. The catalog description<sup>[1]</sup> noted, "[[Italy|ITALY]]. Papal ([[Vatican|States of the Church]]). Baiocco, 1829-R Year I. Rome Mint. Pius VIII. PCGS MS-62 Brown." This type is listed for 1829 only and was struck in Rome. It is among the common Papal copper coins of the nineteenth century but is not as often seen as the later type of 1835-45 ([[Papal States 1835-R quattrino|KM 1318]]). The early coinage of the Papal States used an antique monetary system. After 1830, five quattrini = one baiocco; 100 baiocchi = one scudo. In 1866, the currency was reformed to use centesimi and lire in order to match that of the surrounding kingdom of Italy. In 1870, the Papal States were occupied and annexed by the kingdom of [[Italy]] and coinage ceased until 1929.

''Recorded mintage:'' unknown but somewhat scarce.

''Specification:'' 12.76 g, copper.

''Catalog reference:'' [[On the coinage of the Papal States|Ber-3267]], KM-1301.
