This specimen was lot 2600 in Sincona sale 13 (Zurich, October 2013), where it sold for 180 CHF (about US$233 including buyer's fees). The catalog description<sup>[1]</sup> noted, <blockquote>"''Sardinien 25 Centesimi 1829. Vorzüglich-FDC'' (Sardinia, twenty-five centesimi of 1829, Turin mint. Extremely fine to uncirculated)."</blockquote> The Duchy of Savoy was an Italian state wedged between France and Milan and was often the victim of invasions from both directions. In 1720, the duke acquired the island of Sardinia and promoted himself to king of Sardinia. In 1799, king Carlo Emanuele IV was evicted by Napoleon and the region converted to the Ligurian Republic then annexed to France. Sardinia did not recover her independence until 1815. The king was rewarded by Metternich with the republic of Genoa, which he added to his territory and opened a branch mint there in addition to his existing mint at Turin. The Turin mint used an eagle's head as a mintmark while coins struck at Genoa sported an anchor.
