1 Cavallotto - Francis I

正面描述	Within a beaded inner and outer circle, a Samnite shield is centrally positioned in the field, flanked on either side by the letters M and S. A circular Latin legend runs between the two concentric bead borders, reading CIVITATEM SAVONAE, interspersed with floral ornaments. The hammered fabric gives the coin a characteristic irregular flan consistent with early sixteenth-century Italian civic coinage.

附加信息	Savona's minting rights were a persistent source of friction between the city and Genoa, which sought to absorb Savonan commercial independence throughout the late medieval and early modern period. Francis I of France held Savona under his protection following the French conquest of the Duchy of Milan in 1515, and the city's continued coinage during this interval reflects that political cover. Without French dominance in Liguria, Savona's mint would almost certainly have been suppressed by Genoa far sooner than it ultimately was. The MIR reference places this among the rarer local Ligurian issues — III#3/9 suggesting a small documented survival pool.
