Sincona sale 87, lot 2675

This specimen was lot 2675 in Sincona sale 87 (Zurich, October 2023), where it did not sell. The catalog description[1] noted,

"ITALIEN Savoyen, Vittorio Amedeo II., unter Vormundschaft seiner Mutter Maria Giovanna Battista, 1675-1680. 1/2 Doppia 1677, Torino. Sehr selten. Gutes sehr schön. Winziger Randfehler. (Italy, duchy of Savoy, Victor Amadeus II, under the regency of his mother Maria Giovanna Battista, 1675-80, half doppia of 1677, Turin mint. Very rare, Good very fine, Tiny edge flaw.)"

This very rare type was struck 1676-77. The duchy of Savoy was a poverty-stricken state subject to frequent foreign invasion and its coinage is scanty.

Recorded mintage: unknown.

Specification: 3.33 g, gold, this specimen 3.27 g.

Catalog reference: KM 293, MIR 738b (R4). Fr-1091.
