Greco vs Anon - Top 10 fastest checkmates in history! #4

Welcome to the top ten fastest checkmates!

For the full list, find the original video at: https://rumble.com/v19unae-top-10-fastest-checkmates-in-history.html

Each entry on this list is the oldest documented example of a game with the
given move count that I have managed to find.
If you can find any games older than these, please let me know as I love mating really fast.

There are no known images of most of the players in this list, so I will be using historically accurate and respectful stand-ins for them.

4th place (7 moves):
Greco vs Anonymous, 1620s (The Schollers Mate)
1.e4 e5 2.Qh5 Nc6 3.Bc4 Nf6 4.Qxf7#
