| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field displays a crowned heraldic shield bearing the arms of the Lordship of Frinco, featuring a rampant lion within a quartered escutcheon surmounted by a coronet. The shield is flanked by ornamental scrollwork typical of late sixteenth-century Italian hammered coinage. A circular legend in Latin surrounds the central device, reading MONETA DD FRINGI, identifying the issuing lordship. The entire design is contained within a beaded inner border. The die work is characteristic of the provincial Italian hammered style of the period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Frinco was a minuscule feudal lordship in Monferrato, and its coinage output was correspondingly sparse — a handful of gold scudi struck under Ardizzone Trotti, who held the fief during this period. The Trotti family were Milanese nobles granted the lordship under Spanish imperial patronage, which explains both their license to coin and the brevity of the series.
Coins from micro-lordships like Frinco survive almost entirely in cabinet condition, having circulated nowhere in particular.
