There is a Greek look to this coin although it is from Albania. What a piece!

    Early Albania is tough in general.

    I don't even recall seeing this piece in Krause. Does not look to be a PROVA, however.

    I think this coin is best described as "off metal strike". It's supposed to be struck in gold.
