dannytreeguy Valued Member United States 65 Posts	Posted 11/05/2015 6:40 pm Hi all, the closest thing I could find would be the Venetian grosso type 3 1382 to 1400? Any ideas? Sorry not the best pics Report this Post to the Staff

dannytreeguy Valued Member United States 65 Posts	Posted 11/05/2015 8:07 pm Great thank you :) I'm more of a large cent/half cent guy but this coin caught my eye. I googled the date range and I don't see another exactly the same, are there many variety's for this type of coin? Report this Post to the Staff

dannytreeguy Valued Member United States 65 Posts	Posted 11/05/2015 8:30 pm There's a few close ones but no cigars,, doing variety's is my favorite part of getting a new coin, any books you can suggest? Report this Post to the Staff
Kamnaskires Pillar of the Community United States 7066 Posts	Posted 11/05/2015 8:39 pm No books to recommend as this is not my collecting area. Be sure to scan down - perhaps about 3/4 down the page of that link - to see the grossos under "Doges of Venice: Francesco Foscari - 1423-1457." Report this Post to the Staff
