The ancients posted around here are fascinating and tempting, but for now I'm staying the course on the European crowns. I managed to pick up the following piece today in the Heritage auction at a respectable price. The obverse detail really grabbed my attention, and the planchet stress cracks are interesting on the lower half of the piece.

Piastra (Scudo of 80 Bolognini)
1676-89 (no date)
NGC AU-58; one of 5 graded between NGC and PCGS
DAV-4095
Pope Innocent XI
