Ragusa Tallero from CICF

My one win from CICF was a nice 1759 Ragusa Tallero, Lot 33152. It's my first one from the Republic of Ragusa, modern day Dubrovnik. According to the Rectors of Ragusa list on Wikipedia, many Rectors held the position during the years that this portrait was used on the tallero, 1751-1779, and there seems to be a gap between 1730 and 1752. Any Ragusa experts out there that can provide the name to go with the portrait?

Love the character of that Tallero - clash, recut letters in the legend, the whole nine yards. Nice pick-up!

Here's my photo of the Ragusa Tallero. I'm still trying to find out who's portrait is on it.
