| Additional information |
Frinco was a minor Piedmontese lordship whose coinage rights were exercised during a period when the Savoy dukes were consolidating control over the region's smaller feudal mints. Anonymous billon issues like this one were a deliberate strategy — by omitting the lord's name, the issuing authority preserved a degree of political ambiguity useful when ducal pressure intensified. MIR 622/1 places this type firmly within the contested final decades of independent Frinco minting before Savoyard administrative absorption effectively ended local production.
