Item Specifications
Year: 1863
Country: Kingdom of Italy
Denomination: 10 Centesimi
Composition: Copper
Obverse Design: Profile of King Vittorio Emanuele II facing left, with the engraver's name "FERRARIS" below the neck. Legend: VITTORIO EMANUELE II RE D'ITALIA.
Reverse Design: The value and date within a tied laurel and oak leaf wreath, topped by the Star of Italy.
Condition: Circulated (Ungraded)
Note: This 160-year-old Italian copper displays authentic circulation wear consistent with its extensive use during the early years of the Kingdom. You can expect to see honest "pocket wear" on the high points of the King's hair and facial features, as well as on the delicate leaves of the reverse wreath. The surfaces have aged to a natural, deep chocolate-brown patina typical of 19th-century Italian coinage. Please inspect the high-resolution macro photos to judge the legend clarity, rim integrity, and overall eye appeal for yourself.
