Heritage sale 3040, lot 30156
Papal St H3040-30156r.jpg

The first coinage reform in the Papal States was implemented in the early 1830's during the reign of Gregory XVI (1831-46). All the doppie, zecchini, guili, testoni, etc., were dropped in favor of a silver scudo divided into one hundred baiocchi. Gold one, 2½, five and ten scudi were minted at Rome and Bologna until 1865. This specimen was lot 30156 in Heritage sale 3040 (Chicago, April 2015), where it sold for $1,944.63. The catalog description[1] noted, "Papal States. Gregory XVI gold 10 Scudi 1840-R Anno X MS62 NGC, Rome mint. A most alluring specimen with desirable, harvest-gold color and definite reflectivity within the fields. Minimal handling accounts for the grade on this otherwise choice offering that is highly-collectible in a mint-state designation."

Recorded mintage: unknown.

Specification: 17.33 g, .900 fine gold, .501 troy oz AGW.

Catalog reference: KM 1108, Fr-263, Ber-3281.
