| Beschrijving voorzijde | Crowned and helmeted shield bearing the quartered arms of Montferrat, displayed centrally within a beaded inner circle. The initial letters G and V appear in the left and right fields respectively, flanking the shield. The surrounding legend reads in Latin within the outer circle. The overall design is characteristic of late medieval Italian seigneurial coinage, with the heraldic device rendered in a bold, somewhat schematic hammered style. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Guglielmo VIII ruled Montferrat for nearly three decades as a reliable Milanese client, his coinage policy shaped almost entirely by Sforza pressure. The quarter grosso series from this reign reflects the broader billon debasement sweeping the north Italian petty states in the 1460s and 1470s, as silver fled toward Venice and larger minting authorities. Montferrat had no mines of its own.
MIR 170 is among the more frequently cited types from this marquessate, though surviving examples in attributable condition remain scarce outside specialist Italian collections.
