    Had this piece since 1990:happy:

    AV 80 Lire 1828 Genoa Mint (Anchor) mm. 25.9g. 33mm. FDC
    King Carlo Felice 1821-31 of Sardinia/ Cyprus/ Jerusalem/ Piedmont/ Montesferat/ Genoa.

    I would say that his title over Jerusalem might be a stretch....esp. since the Ottoman Sultan ruled over the entire Middle East. 4426735l.jpg

    Another nice coin @panzerman ! I especially like the anchor in the lower right on the reverse.

    Sort of like Britain’s former claim to France.
