A stunning Early Modern Luigino

Ive always thought this was a beautiful bust. I guess shes someone from an italian state but google doesnt bring up nothing on her and little on her husband.

Oh and best of all this coin was just a tad over an andrew jackson!

    You did well on that one. Whats going on with the die on the reverse bottom? Is that a cud or perhaps planchet defect? I like these non-standard planchets - they always add an element of authenticity and uniqueness.

    Interesting coin!

    It must be pretty thin, given the diameter and weight.
