[QUOTE="Marsyas Mike, post: 4956284, member: 85693"]This looks like a fun lot to research - and a good price too. I like to buy ancients in lots like this - it is affordable and fun to figure out. Whenever I get unattributed coins I first try a Google image searches with the legend. It is amazing how often this works. I typed in "bologna coin ae" and got a few hits - the r3c1 "BO VIA OCFT" might be similar to this one, from a Vcoin listing (although yours seems to have a 1600s date): Italian Papal States. Bologna. Pope Clement XI (1700-1721). AE Quattrinino 1713. F/VF.
