Gasp New Member United Kingdom 29 Posts	Posted 12/19/2022 5:51 pm Super interesting! Thank you for your knowledge and comments. I just found a study from C. Gamberini written in 1977 who attributed these specimen to a clandestine mint in north Italy. Due to a small hoard found between Lombardia and Piedmont, although seems like there aren't any proofs Report this Post to the Staff
