Is that so? I love ITALY, besides my childrens father was French - Italian, so actually many years I carry and Italian last name, I was widow almost 10 yrs, my now husband who is a blessing of God is Persian and I am Mexican so imagine!!! hehehe
It is not so heavy, and I am so sorry but I really don't know much either, I have tons of coins for I like from other countries as well as old ones, but as per value, I am clueless... I have a better idea with Mexican coins for I am Mexican and I am planning to post a 1966 20 cents coin which is as large as the old dollars coins and it is all cooper (heavy) and I know it was some decent money back then for 10 yrs later (when I was a little girl) I was buying a coke and a sandwich with 5 cents... As you can see my appreciation of coins is very "rustic" hehehehe.... I just enjoy the history and sadly lires (coins from Italy) are long gone fro most everyone in Europe uses Euros only.
Thanks Mark for the bid!!!! Check some more pesos, I am going to post a very old large cooper Mexican coin next week, and some old Persian currency WOOHOOOOO!!
