Description
Bologna. Giovanni I Bentivoglio gold Bolognino d'Oro ND (1401-1402) MS61 NGC, CNI-Xa.Unl. (cf. CNI-Xa.6 for similar obverse, CNI-Xa.4 for similar reverse), Biaggi-373 (R2), cf. MIR-13 (R2; legend variety). 3.53gm. +IOhS: (mark of contraction above) D: BET (mark of contraction above) | EVOGLIS, lion rampant left holding banner / +S+ PETRVS: D | +BONONIA, St. Peter nimbate, standing facing, Gospel in left hand, keys in right, shield to left. An astonishing piece of pre-Renaissance Italian gold, not least for its fantastic state of preservation considering its over five-century-long age, suggesting a somewhat conservative assigned grade. For comparison, a similarly beautiful example achieved the equivalent of $11,175 in Numismatica Ars Classica's December 2017 Auction 104 (lot 14).From the Allen Moretti Swiss Collection
