| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central device consisting of a fleur-de-lis rising above an upward-curving crescent moon, both enclosed within a plain inner circle. The design is rendered in low relief in the hammered style typical of Angevin coinage, with the fleur-de-lis serving as the dynastic symbol of the House of Anjou. The peripheral legend runs around the outer border of the flan. The flan is irregular in shape, consistent with hand-struck medieval coinage of the period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Carlo I d'Angiò struck these denari following his defeat of Manfredi at Benevento in 1266, which handed him the Kingdom of Sicily by papal grant. The Angevin administration overhauled the existing Norman-Hohenstaufen monetary system, but the small billon denominations changed slowly — Carlo's early issues borrowed heavily from the preceding coinage infrastructure, including existing mint personnel at Naples and Messina.
The series ends in 1282, cut short by the Sicilian Vespers uprising of that year, which expelled Angevin authority from the island entirely and split the kingdom permanently.
