The Coppi's and or Fiorelli's I like have the built up fork crown, like a Raleigh tubular fork, just all fillet brazed together, medallions at the end of the cross tube on either side. A production bike, but had the thoughtful touches of brass filled in seat lug binder ears, as seen on upper end small builder frames from Italy.

A bit of a dark horse in the USA, not many imported. The smaller sizes from the 60's share geometry very close if not the same to a Cinelli of the period.
