Additional information

Dulcigno — modern Ulcinj in Montenegro — operated as a semi-autonomous commune under loose Angevin suzerainty through much of the fourteenth century, striking its own copper coinage in the manner of the Adriatic coastal towns. The follaro was the lowest denomination in this regional economy, circulating alongside Venetian and Ragusan issues in a port town whose commerce ran more on barter and foreign coin than on civic issues.

The CNI VI attribution places this among a small, poorly documented group. Surviving examples are rare enough that die relationships across the series remain incompletely mapped.
