Owner Comments:
This is a nice clean white looking coin with inscribed rim lettering from the Rome Mint. The reverse has a great scene reminiscent of ancient coinage from Republican Rome (Victory in Quadriga). These are very available. What's scarce is the One Lira coin, which is the same but smaller.
