| Beschrijving voorzijde | The Florentine lily (giglio), the heraldic emblem of the Republic of Florence, depicted facing, with its characteristic three upward petals and two lateral scrolled volutes at the base, rendered in a bold, stylised medieval manner typical of hammered billon coinage. A border of pellets encircles the central device within the field. The flan is irregular, as is characteristic of hand-struck medieval issues. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Florence's quattrino coinage of the 1370s circulated during a period of acute municipal stress — the city was moving toward the Ciompi revolt of 1378, when wool-carders and disenfranchised laborers briefly seized control of the government in one of the earliest documented workers' uprisings in European history. Billon's debased silver content was itself a political calculation, stretching the commune's metal reserves during years of factional expenditure and mercenary contracts.
MIR FI#88 places this among the issues attributed to the third quarter of the fourteenth century under the priorate system, where monetary decisions passed through rotating magistrates rather than a single authority.
