    Description

    Naples / Napoli
    (Italy under Spanish Rule)
    Italian States.
    1597
    1 Tornese.
    Philip II
    (Felipe II)
    Mint master GR, (NV).
    Cob / Macuquina coinage.
    Copper: 8.06 grams (aw)
    of a 6.9 gram mint issued weight.
    Ref: MIRI#190, MB#148.
    Crowned head of Philip II with "PHILIPP DG REX ARA VTRI SIC"
    The reverse with a cornercopia with fruit and ears dividing a scarce date of 15-97. The revese in nice grade, with sharp date. The obverse, not so much...as it has suffered from environmental damage / corrosion. So I am listing this piece at a very fair price.
    Very rare, Italy, Naples, Copper Tornese, dated 1597 with Portrait of king Philip II of Spain. Oddly overweight for this issue by 2 grams.
    The photos I have provided don't do this coin much justice. I will try and add newer images. I generally reduce the prices of my coins every month, until it sells and I am open to all offers.
    I am conservative in my grading and especially my rarity ratings. If a coin I list is not rare, I will NOT add it. Plain and simple. I add new listings when I can from my 35 years of collecting, so check back.
