The Eidolon Posted March 4 · Member Share Posted March 4 Nice coin! I do like Italian/Papal States coin, but rarely find them that old. Here's a jubilee year Quattrino. I think it's Gubbio 1750. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeandAcre Posted March 4 · Member Share Posted March 4 Now you guys have me forlornly wishing for one of Marcellus II, mainly for Palestrina's Missa Papae Marcelli. The Kyrie is way, way at the top of my favorite choral pieces. ...Hope this skips the ad. If not, you might want to restart it, after an aural palate cleanse. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
