| Beschrijving keerzijde | A crowned oval cartouche bearing a quartered coat of arms with a central inescutcheon displaying the Savoy eagle and cross. The four quarters of the shield bear the heraldic arms of the House of Savoy's dynastic territories. The collar of the Order of the Most Holy Annunciation encircles the shield, with its characteristic knotted links clearly rendered. The Latin legend DVX SAB ET MONTISFER PRINC PED & runs around the periphery of the design, identifying the ruler's ducal and princely titles. A dentilated border frames the entire composition. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Victor Amadeus III inherited a kingdom still absorbing the administrative reforms his father Charles Emmanuel III had pushed through the Savoyard state, but his reign is better remembered for catastrophic miscalculation — he declared war on Revolutionary France in 1792, and within a few years Piedmont-Sardinia had lost its mainland territories entirely. These fractional gold pieces belong to the quieter earlier decade of his rule, before that unraveling.
The quarter doppia denomination traces directly to the old Savoyard doppia system, a unit of account with roots in the sixteenth century. The .905 fineness was tightly controlled by the Turin mint.
