    Hi everyone!
    what can you tell me about the grade of this coin?? the first pic has a kind of ¨hair¨ at the right, it isn't a scratch.
    Thanks!!

    Nice coin!, kinda hard to tell an exact grade, pics are too small and I have never before seen one of these. But from what I can see I will guess probably at least XF and maybe a AU.

    thank you very much! I'm happy with my coin, it's very difficult to find this kind of coins here in Argentina, much harder in my city.
    And I pay it very cheap, almost 3 u$s.

    $3 US is a very good price if it is XF, A great price if it rates a AU!
    BTW, Mintage on this coin is 3.6 million. Minted in Rome. My older copy of Krause (2005) list a price of $2.00 in XF and $16.50 In UNC.

    I use for italian coins (I collect Italian and San Marino's coins) the Gigante Catalog that it's specialized in Italic Peninsula and the price list is € 3 XF €6AU...

    I have some US coins, But I find World coins so much more interesting and artistic. I don't have any particular focus, I just buy any coin that I see that appeals to me (and that I could afford).

    It's the same to me with argentinian coins, I love coins from the Italian Kingdom.
    I have a lot of worldd coins, i really like old cooper coins, those are my favourites
