This specimen was lot 30184 in Heritage sale 3029 (New York, January 2014), where it sold for $44,062.50. The catalog description[1] noted, "Papal States. Clemente XI gold 4 Scudi d'oro (Quadrupla) 1706, Rome mint, AU55 NGC. Obv. Papal arms. Rev. Madonna and Child with date below in Roman numerals MDCCVI. An exceedingly rare issue with a slightly soft central strike and notable remaining luster. No recent sales can be referenced for this elusive piece. Clemente XI was born Giovanni Francesco Albani to a family that came to Italy from Albania in the 15th century. During his reign as Pope, the Papal States began a major decline in power and prestige. Ex: 'Colonel' E.H.R. Green; Green Estate' Partnership of Eric P Newman/B.G. Johnson." This denomination was the largest gold coin issued by the pope during the seventeenth century. Called a quadrupla scudi d'oro, it matches the gold four ducats in size and weight.
