Sincona sale 43, lot 3516

This specimen was lot 3516 in Sincona sale 43 (Zürich, October 2017), where it sold for 300 CHF (about US$358 including buyer's fees). The catalog description[1] noted,

"ITALY, House of Savoy / Sardinia, Vittorio Emanuele II, 1849-1861 20 Lire 1860. Turin. Gutes sehr schön. (kingdom of Sardinia, Victor Emanuel II, 1849-61, twenty lire of 1860, Turin mint. Good very fine.)"

This type was struck at the Turin and Genoa mints 1850-61 during the reign of Victorio Emanuele II of Italy, while he was merely King of Sardinia (1849-61). It is struck to the same standard as the contemporary French twenty francs. It is, however, reasonably common.

Recorded mintage: 110,624.

Specification: 6.45 grams, 0.900 fine gold, .186 troy oz AGW, this specimen 6.45 g.

Catalog reference: KM 146.2; Pagani 358. Schl. 290. Fr-1146; Mont-24.
