Another raw coin in my collection of "classic commemorative".
What do you think of it?
Thank you all.

I think it's amazing. Thank you for sharing. Why is there extra patina around the rim?

Lovely example indeed. Your otherwise excellent photographs do not convey a sense of the remaining luster. How does the coin look in hand?

I see no signs of wear. Certainly MS-something.

Looking forward to viewing any other commemorative you wish to share.

Very nice example!

Are you buying these locally in Italy or are you having to go through overseas dealers via the mail?

Either way, you're assembling an attractive set! Congrats!

Thank you all for the positive commentsand and sorry for my English.
I try to answer some questions.
I think the coin has been stored for years in plastic bag in coin shop, where I bought it.
The patina, so, has developed, more on the edge.
Actually my photos do not reproduce the true reality of the coin luster.
Also because they are still made with a smartphone.
All raw coins in my collection, I bought them in hand, from dealers or in conventions in Italy.
Those TPG slabs I got them on the internet by American traders or German.
I'll try to show you, my collection, which is almost complete.

This is the easy way with which I take pictures of coins. ;)
