These are some new additions that are coming my way. Picked up from a recent auction that was heavy in Italian States Coinage. As frequently happens (to me), the coin I had my hopes up the highest for got away. It sold at a reasonable price but it still came down to a money issue. It came up after these and I had blown my budget.

Another new addition. I'm as happy with the accompanying Chapman envelope as I am with the coin itself.
