This specimen was lot 71144 in Stack's Bowers Collector's Choice sale (Santa Ana, CA, May 2018), where it did not sell. The catalog description<sup>[1]</sup> noted, "ITALY. Tuscany. Fiorino, 1848. NGC MS-62. Sharply struck and brilliant with light attractive tone." This type is listed for 1843-48 and 1856-58. These obscure little Italian states coins don't catalog for much but are very difficult to find. The ''fiorino'', originally a gold coin equal to a ducat, was in the nineteenth century one quarter of a [[Tuscany 1834 4 fiorini Dav-159|''francescone'']], the Tuscan equivalent of a ''piastra''.

''Recorded mintage:'' unknown.

''Specification:'' 6.98 g, .917 fine silver, 24 mm diameter, reeded edge.

''Catalog reference:'' KM-C72a.
