Spence Moderator United States 34413 Posts	Posted 04/17/2018 8:02 pm Great denaro! I have one from his 1247 AD mintage, but agree that yours is from the 1249 emission (Frederico II's last). Looks like Biaggi #473 to me.

antwerpen2306 Pillar of the Community Belgium 1194 Posts	Posted 04/18/2018 08:11 am I bought it in the local coinclub here in Antwerp . Every month there is a sale with often good coins or little money (this € 10,5= $ 13). I use the Corpus nummorum italicorum , it is not recent but frr on internet . As I don't have many Italian coins (5 or 6) , it is the cheapest solution .albert Report this Post to the Staff
tdziemia Pillar of the Community United States 7943 Posts	Posted 04/18/2018 8:20 pm I think that's a GREAT acquisition for 10 euro. Like spence, I also have a denaro from Brindisi late in the reign of this emperor. A different type. It set me back quite a bit more than 10 euro! I also do not have access to Biaggi, and have used CNI online, but it is a bit difficult sometimes. Edited by tdziemia 04/18/2018 8:21 pm Report this Post to the Staff
