    Two of the nicest examples I've seen: eye-popping!

    Mid-60's perhaps although My krause doesn't list a value in UNC.

    Where did you ever find these?

    What are they struck over?

    Found in northern Italy. Struct over some type of Portrait 8R. Will examine them further this weekend to see if I can determine the specific under type.

    Terrific examples- they do look MS. It is difficult from the image to be more specific with an estimate

    Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.

    Very nice. I'm frequently tempted to collect these.

    The first one looks to be struck over a Carolus III portrait. See if you can make out the date (1772-1789). That second one is tough to figure out, from the picture. Good luck!
