Those Italian Princess coins are really nice - I have a couple of them and really like the design.

Nice looking coin. How can you tell it is a 1966? I can't see the date on the picture.

To answer you and Steve, it's made of 0.835 Silver, is approx. 29 mm diameter, and the date is on the edge lettering.

Ah, you have come upon one of my favorite designs - I have a couple that I love - they can tone nicely also. Good catch.

And a Rome mint mark I have one but circulated and nowhere near that nice. Good catch.

Lovely coin!! Mine is only XF- or XF so should be upgraded once! By the way, it depicts famous Columbus Flotilla!

I don't even have a new camera yet. When I get one, I'll probably clog up the whole forum with pics.
