    I had my eye on a MS Saluto d'oro in Maison Palambo Auction/ it ended up going for BIG $$$$$.
    So, another one came up in Italian auction (Ranieri) even more pristine, ended up getting it for a steal.

    Here she is...

    AV Saluto d'oro ND Naples Mint 23mm. 4.39g. .998 fine
    Carlo I d'Angio 1266-85AD

    obv. Arms of Anjou/ Jerusalem
    KAROL' DEI GRA IERL M SICILIE REX

    rev. The Annunciation / Archangel Gabriel / Virgin Mary / Vase of Lilies

    That is a gorgeous coin! I love the symbolism. I long for the day I’ll have the budget to add pieces such as this. Well done @panzerman !

    That is a great idea:happy:. Even, after a long 14+ hour work day, I always find time to admire some my coins before retiring to bed....

    TypeCoin971793 Just a random guy on the internet

    I tried bidding on a coin in this auction, but I got outbid by one increment. :( (and no, I am not sharing it so I don’t advertise this type further ;) )

    But that meant money was freed up for a different and special coin. :)

    I know the feeling!
    I had my eye on a "fast stempelglanz" =(MS-63) AV 4 Escudos 1830 Michael I in Rauch Auction. i lost that coin by one increment too! But you never know, I have seen coins bid up 10X estimated value, that is what happens when two collectors with deep pockets want the same coin;) Best example of that took place in Triton XIX (Adam's Sale) there where a series of Mughal Zodiac Mohurs from Agr Mint, struck under Jahangir, all were estimated around 50K, all went over 325K!!!! Bought by a Saudi Prince.....of course.
