Coin Highlights:
Each of the 1863 10 Lire Italian Gold Coins in this listing comes with a Mint State 63 certification. A coin in MS63 condition exhibits slightly impaired mint luster with a generally attractive eye appeal. The coins will have several small contact marks, some of which may be in the primary focal fields. There is also the potential for a few scattered, small hairlines or a small patch. These 10 Lire Italian Gold Coins come with a special label from the NGC that includes the Italian flag, a map of the Italian peninsula, and a picture of the Leaning Tower of Pisa.
1863 10 Lire Italian Gold Coins were released at a special moment in Italian and European history. For the first time since the Roman Empire, the majority of the Italian peninsula was under the rule of a single kingdom once more. Victor Emmanuel II, King of Sardinia from 1849 to 1861, had emerged as a powerful player in the politics of Italian kingdoms and city-states. He was able to use that sway and his military might to unify the peninsula under a single entity as the Kingdom of Italy.
Obverse fields on the 1863 10 Lire Italian Gold Coins include a portrait of Victor Emmanuel II of Italy. Emmanuel II was part of the House of Savoy that had ruled the Kingdom of Sardinia for centuries and established the continued rule of the House of Savoy over the entirety of the Kingdom of Italy, an entity that would last until 1946 and the dissolution of the monarchy in Italy.
Reverse designs on the 1863 Italian Gold Coins feature the Kingdom of Italy coat of arms. This simple version of the coat of arms features a quartered shield split by a cross and topped with a crown. There is a laurel wreath around the shield as well in the design.
