| Beschrijving voorzijde | Draped bust of a female figure facing right, with elaborately curled long hair falling over the shoulder, rendered in the Baroque style typical of mid-17th century Italian coinage. The effigy occupies the central field, with the truncation visible at the lower portion. A circular Latin legend surrounds the bust, separated from the effigy by a plain inner border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The luigino was never intended for Monaco's domestic economy. These small silver coins were struck by dozens of minor European princes in the 1660s specifically for export to the Levant trade, where Ottoman merchants accepted them by weight alongside Ottoman akçe. Louis I issued them under his Italian title — Luigi — precisely because the series demanded that idiom. The scheme collapsed around 1668–1670 when the Ottoman authorities cracked down on the flood of underweight imitations saturating the eastern Mediterranean markets.
