This specimen was lot 10539 in Ponterio sale 169 (Baltimore, November 2012), where it sold for $441. The catalog description[1] noted, "ITALY. Venice. Ducato, ND (1779-80). Moneyer R.B.. Light tone. PCGS Genuine--Cleaning, EF Details Secure Holder. Ex: Ponterio & Associates, Sale 117, January 2002, Lot #1835." This type was issued 1779-89. None bear dates but the frequent turnover of assayers allows collectors to narrow down the time of issue to a year or two. Venice also issued silver ducatoni, scudi and talleri. By this period, Venice was a ghost of her former power, surviving only on the sufferance of her Austrian and Turkish neighbors.

Recorded mintage: unknown but somewhat scarce.

Specification: 23.40 g, .826 fine silver.

Catalog reference: Dav-1567; KM 706 (formerly KM-C100); CNI-VIII.521,58; Pap-36.
