[QUOTE="Harry G, post: 19434494, member: 105282"]Hi all! I recently bought this coin in a small lot at auction. After some research, I've worked out that it is probably a luigino, minted in 1669. However, I'm struggling to find out what the exact type is. The only thing about the type was an old article here written in 1890: [URL]https://it.wikisource.org/wiki/Tre_luigini_inediti_di_Campi[/URL] (yes I know WikiSource probably isn't the best). The coin that matches mine exactly is the third one down. I tried looking for other examples (with Google, acsearch etc.), but I couldn't find any similar examples with this obverse or anything else about it. [ATTACH=full]1539168[/ATTACH] Obverse: IVLIA • M • PRINCIP • CAMPI Reverse: PLVRA • GERMINAT BON • 21mm, 1.88g Does anyone know of any other examples I can compare this too? Many thanks![/QUOTE]
