This specimen was lot 4271 in Goldberg sale 70 (Los Angeles, September 2012), where it sold for $143.75. The catalog description[1] noted, "Italian States - Milan. Lira, 1786-LB. Joseph II. Reverse: Crowned oval shield. Surface flaking and polished. Very Fine." Like many early Italian minors, this type struck 1781-90 doesn't catalog for much but is seldom seen. The duchy of Milan was Spanish until 1714, when it passed to the Austrians, who lost it to Revolutionary France in 1797. After the fall of Napoleon in 1815, it returned to Hapsburg rule until the unification of Italy in 1859-60.

Recorded mintage: unknown.

Specification: 5.33-6.25 g, silver, 26 mm diameter.

Catalog reference: KM-208; CNI V, 407,43; Montengro-114.
