@tdziemia
That's a really nice, clean example - great surfaces. These coppers seemed to do a lot of work and examples are usually quite grotty but that's a nicely preserved one.

A 1674 20 Bolognini issued by Clement X with a rampant Lion to left, holding standard with the word LIBERT a wonderful looking coin!

Quote: Since all of your nice Gubbio quattrinos (I think back around pages 5-10 of the thread), I have been keeping an eye out for one with Saint Ubaldus, and landed this one today, Clement XII (1730-1740): Excellent Papal coin!

 ... and like many of yours, not very common. However, despite that reverse legend, I am seeing this attributed as a Rome issue (which makes sense since I don;t remember Ferrara showing Peter on their coins, only George and Maurelius). I guess we need to learn what FER AUXILIUM means.

Quote: I am seeing this attributed as a Rome issue Funny - I was thinking that it looked like a Rome mint issue, pretty good quality and well struck - but the seller had it attributed to Ferrera and I can't find it on Numista so that was my working assumption. Unfortunately - 10 minutes after posting this my PC crashed - blue screen of death - and won't reboot.  (typing this from my work laptop) I may be a few days before I get back up and running again to investigate this further.

Up and mostly running again :) And a couple of new additions. This Clement XI Grosso ND (1715) showing bust of St. Paul facing left on the reverse - Rome mint, There seem to be two main varieties of this coin - one with St Paul with a nimbus (minted 1716) and this one without minted in 1715.
