Sap Moderator Australia 16810 Posts	Posted 04/10/2014 9:25 pm The coin is gold. Actual date of issue unknowable. Mintage unknowable but, as a general rule, fractional coins like this were not struck in anywhere near the same quantity as their larger counterparts. "CNI.xii-18" is the catalogue and page reference number in Corpus Nummorum Italicorum, the standard reference work for mediaeval Italian coins. Here's the example in the ANS collection. Someone with a recent copy of the Friedberg "Gold Coins of the World" catalogue might be able to look it up for you. My copy dates from the 1960s. The reference number in that catalogue is Florence 277. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S.

I am thinking NGC got the attribution wrong because I just found out with a US colonial they sometimes wing it. If you search the Heritage archives for Florence silver coins there are like 2 and they aren't this one. Report this Post to the Staff
