Ferdinando III di Lorena (First Reign), Grand Duke of Tuscany 1790-1801

Fr-342, PCGS-graded MS-63+

Very choice with rich gold toning and a wonderful image of John the Baptist.

This is a coin minted during a period of unrest resulting from Napoleon Bonaparte’s dominance in Italy. Ferdinando was the Grand Duke of Tuscany from 1790 to 1801 and, after Napoleon’s fall, again from 1814 to 1824.
