<p>[QUOTE=&quot;lordmarcovan, post: 3248636, member: 10461&quot;]Nice coin.&nbsp; I&#039;ve always liked this type.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.ngccoin.com/price-guide/world/italy-lira-km-62-1922-1935-cuid-1125476-duid-1472878" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.ngccoin.com/price-guide/world/italy-lira-km-62-1922-1935-cuid-1125476-duid-1472878" rel="nofollow">Here is the same page</a> that [USER=81991]@alurid[/USER] just linked, but with your coin&#039;s date highlighted.</p><p><br /></p><p>It catalogs $20.00 in XF40 and $100.00 in MS60.</p><p><br /></p><p>Yours appears to maybe have the <i>slightest</i> bit of rub on the high points, which would make it a choice About Uncirculated example (AU55 or so, I&#039;d say).</p><p><br /></p><p>If it were sent off to a grading service and <i>did</i> grade out as a Mint State coin, it would be better than MS60- more like MS63, if you&#039;re lucky.&nbsp; Then it&#039;s a $300.00 coin by the catalog, but unlikely to fetch that much in the real world.</p><p><br /></p><p>But that&#039;s a somewhat wishful scenario.&nbsp; As mentioned, I believe it is an AU coin, so it would most likely fall between the $20.00 XF40 value and the $100.00 MS60 value.</p><p><br /></p><p>My guess?&nbsp; $45-50-ish, retail.&nbsp; Take that with a big grain of salt, though.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;d advise you try a little acetone or rubbing alcohol to see if you can remove those fingerprints, but don&#039;t dip it in any other kind of cleaning product or scrub it too hard.&nbsp; Just a gentle rub with a Q-tip, then a rinse with distilled water.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces2595.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces2595.html" rel="nofollow">Here is the Numista page for the type</a>, which has some additional information.&nbsp; Note that their listing &quot;has the numbers mixed up&quot; and puts a higher value on VF than XF, which is absurd.&nbsp; That kind of column-mixup glitch usually happens on the NGC/Krause pages, as [USER=81991]@alurid[/USER] noted.&nbsp; The Krause <i>Standard Catalog of World Coins</i> crew is understaffed and obviously don&#039;t have many people to proofread their catalog.</p><p><br /></p><p>&quot;BUONO DA L.1&quot; is &quot;<i>good for 1 Lira</i>&quot;, as you might have guessed.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
