This specimen was lot 2667 in Sincona sale 87 (Zürich, October 2023), where it sold for 375 CHF (about US$505 including buyer's fees). The catalog description[1] noted,
"ITALIEN Rom - Repubblica Romana, 1798-1799, 2 Baiocchi o. J. (1799), Roma. Selten in dieser Erhaltung. NGC MS62 BN. (Italy, Roman Republic, 1798-99, undated two baiocchi, Rome mint. Rare in this condition.)"
The Roman Republic was formed to welcome the advancing French armies in 1798 and the pope fled to Venice and Austrian protection. When Napoleon left Italy for Paris, the puppet republics all collapsed and the pope returned to Rome, to rule until 1808. This type was struck in many varieties with different initials added. It is expensive in Very Fine or better as it was normally very crudely struck.
Recorded mintage: unknown.
Specification: bronze or brass.
Catalog reference: KM 7.1, Mont. 32, Pagani 28.
