  the 7080 .it section that deepens the topics
• 1:01
  discussed on the portal. I am with journalist
• 1:04
  Enzo Mauri, who introduces the current topic.
• 1:07
  Good morning, today I am going to talk to you
• 1:08
  about a glamorous mistake. After the numismatic
• 1:11
  500 lire of silver that we have already talked
• 1:14
  about, in 1961 also the philatelic lent itself
• 1:18
  to a glamorous swindler, protagonist Franco Bullo
• 1:21
  Grunchi Rosa. The National Assembly is electing
• 1:23
  the head of state. Preside la seduta gronchi.
• 1:26
  is the last of the four votes. In the ballot
• 1:29
  of green and gold vimini, Schelpa puts his card.
• 1:31
  In April 1961, a state visit was scheduled for
• 1:35
  the President of the Republic, Giovanni Gronchi,
• 1:38
  in three Latin American countries, Peru, Argentina
• 1:41
  and Uruguay. For the time being, the Council
• 1:43
  of Ministers had authorized a special commemorative
• 1:45
  Philatelic Emission. Three monochrome Franco
• 1:49
  Bulli were prepared, with specific tariffs for
• 1:51
  them as well as for the respective countries,
• 1:53
  as a reminder to bring on the plane. The tariffs
• 1:57
  corresponded to 170 Lire for Argentina, 185 Lire
• 2:01
  for Uruguay and 205 Lire for Peru. The design
• 2:05
  represented a modern airplane on a hemisphere
• 2:08
  that highlighted Italy and one of the three South
• 2:11
  American countries. The Franco Bulli would have
• 2:13
  been broadcast on April 6, the day of the departure
• 2:15
  of President Gronchi. In reality, the broadcast
• 2:18
  was postponed to April 3 to predict the boosts
• 2:21
  that would later be used by the citizens. and
• 2:25
  Gronchi reads. Gronchi. Gronchi. It's 5 .17 when
• 2:33
  he pronounced his name for the 423th time. He
• 2:36
  is now the new president. The assembly has declared.
• 2:46
  We can only imagine the expression of the Peruvian
• 2:50
  businessman Alfonso Arias when on April 3 he
• 2:53
  discovered that the pink gronchi was wrong. A
• 2:57
  map of 1939 was used for the Franco Bullo stamp,
• 3:00
  who knows why. In the document, the area called
• 3:03
  the Amazon Triangle along the Contesa between
• 3:05
  Ecuador and Peru had not yet been attributed
• 3:08
  to the latter. Faced with the remonstrance of
• 3:10
  the Peruvian businessman who threatened the diplomatic
• 3:13
  incident, the Italian government was therefore
• 3:15
  forced to honor Ruinosa marches back. The Ministry
• 3:18
  of Posts disposes the immediate withdrawal of
• 3:20
  the pink Gronchi, which was replaced by a correct
• 3:22
  gray francobullo. The busts with the wrong francobullo
• 3:26
  were in turn the object of a sort of double split,
• 3:30
  as the correct one was overlaid with the wrong
• 3:33
  one. He came to bring you the ad. He knows his
• 3:44
  mother sees him and will be with him. It's useless
• 3:46
  to say that, on the part of the philatelic enthusiasts,
• 3:49
  the race broke out, the copies of Grunke Rosa
• 3:52
  available, while those not issued were destroyed.
• 3:55
  The fact is that the Grunke Rosa became a collector's
• 3:57
  item with quotations of all respect, to the point
• 4:00
  that it was estimated that about 80 ,000 had
• 4:03
  already been sold. Here is buried the father.
• 4:05
  The name is engraved on the pencil, a name that
• 4:08
  the son has known how to honor, a name that today
• 4:10
  Italians repeat with faithful affection. The
• 4:14
  story of the Grunchi Rosa contributed in the
• 4:16
  mid -60s to the so -called philatelic boom that
• 4:19
  made it the most sought -after Italian Franco
• 4:21
  Bullo, although there are rarer. Even today,
• 4:24
  there are still some false ones in circulation,
• 4:26
  some of which are made very well. As far as quotations
• 4:29
  are concerned, the Grunchi Rosa, authentic certificate,
• 4:32
  is sold today for 500 euros or so, while the
• 4:35
  bulls... Thanks to Denzo Mauri for the modern
