This specimen was lot 1121 in Jean Elsen sale 122 (Brussels, September 2014), where it sold for €950 (about US$1,455 including buyer's fees). The catalog description<sup>[1]</sup> noted, <blockquote>"''ITALIE, SAVOIE et SARDAIGNE, Charles Albert (1831-1849), AV 100 lire, 1834 P, Turin. Très Beau.'' (Italy, kingdom of Sardinia, Charles Albert (1831-49), gold hundred lire of 1834, Turin mint. Very fine.)"</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 (shown here) as a mintmark while coins struck at Genoa sported an anchor. This type was struck 1832-42 at Turin (shown here) and Genoa and superseded the gold eighty lire of the previous reign. Tho not rare, it is expensive.
