Description from the seller
SAN MARINO. 5 Lire. 1938.
- Value: 5 Lire.
- Year: 1938.
- Inscriptions: Obverse: REPUBBLICA DI SAN MARINO with an allegorical female bust facing left, with braided hair and a classical headdress. Reverse: numeral 5 superimposed on a vertical fasces bunch, with an olive branch, surrounded by a bead crown and the legend LIRE 5.
- Grade: MS65 (NGC).
5 Lire coin corresponding to the 1930s series of the Republic of San Marino, with a design of pronounced classical character and symbolism clearly influenced by the Italian style of the period. The obverse features a female bust in left profile, with serene features and firm modeling, good hair detail and facial contour. The reverse shows the facial value integrated into a vertical composition with fasces and a vegetal branch, with well-defined and balanced reliefs. This specimen is uncirculated, with original luster partly preserved, a light golden patina and minimal surface marks typical of the grade, maintaining clean fields and a very attractive visual presentation.
Disclaimer: For orders shipped outside the European Union, I want to leave absolutely clear that I do ship from Spain, which means that if the package is sent to any country outside the European Union, and/or inside EU that has special tax agreement (example: Canary Islands), it might be stopped in your local customs and they might ask you to pay taxes. This is a customs legal procedure and it is completely out of our control. Thanks for your understanding.
