Hi,
I've had this coin for about 10 years now and have had trouble fully identifying it until recently. It appears to be a pilastre from Tuscany dated 1593 during the reign of Ferdinand 1. Anybody have any idea of it's auction value or rarity. It's about 43 mm and 32.7 grams.

Here some European Auction Results

I would send it off to NGC or PCGS to verify it's authenticity as many of these were faked/counterfeited.

Here are some additional photos. Is there anything here that would lead one to believe this coin is not authentic. Also is there anyone that get can give me a range of value assuming it is authentic? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I probably will be auctioning the coin shortly.
Thanks,

I didn't see the previous post until after adding an additional one myself. Thanks everyone for the links. They have been very helpful.

It has now been graded by ICG as AU-50 which I think is pretty good since none are supposed to be available in uncirculated condition. Probably be selling it soon.
