The first specimen was lot 3566 in Goldberg sale 75 (Los Angeles, September 2013), where it sold for $299. The catalog description<sup>[1]</sup> noted, "Italian States - Papal/Roman States. Scudo, 1858-R. Year XIII. Pius IX. Slight striking weakness near edge. Lustrous. NGC graded MS-63." This type, struck 1858-65 at Rome, is not listed as rare but seldom turns up. The edge lettering was updated mid-year on the anniversary of the reign of the pope. The coinage was reformed to use centesimi and lire in 1867 but the Papal States were annexed by [[Italy]] in 1870 and the series ended.

''Catalog reference:'' Fr-277; Pagani-382; KM 1361, [[On the coinage of the Papal States|Ber-3308]].
