Spence Moderator United States 34426 Posts	Posted 09/02/2017 10:18 pm @Bill, great coin that you posted, with Ferdinand I's face being one that only his mother could love. Do you have it attributed as Biaggi 1675? That looks closest to me, except that the letter behind the bust is listed as a C.

BillSnyder Pillar of the Community 778 Posts	Posted 09/03/2017 10:23 am Sadly, don't know much about this coin. (I collect silver coins of Ferdinand and Isabella to Isabella II. I have no references to this slightly earlier piece. My old notes say "Italy, Naples. Ferdinand I of Aragon. 1458-1494. AR Coronato (3.96 gm) FERNANDVS:ARAGO:REX:SI:HIE, crowned and cuirassed bust right; I behind /IVSTA-TVENDA, St. Michael slaying dragon; Michael holds shield with cross. Pannuti 18b; CNI XIX p. 141, 515; Biaggi 1675. Good VF." Bill Report this Post to the Staff
