| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field features the Trivulzio family coat of arms, a shield charged with three rows of cross-crosslets, enclosed within a beaded inner circle. A crested helm or ornament surmounts the shield at the top. The peripheral legend CRISTVS VINCIT runs in Latin capital letters around the outer margin, partially visible due to the irregular flan. The overall design is rendered in the bold, low-relief style typical of late 15th-century Italian hammered coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Johann Jakob Trivulzio received Mesocco — a small Alpine valley commanding the northern approach to the Splügen Pass — as an imperial fief in 1487, granted by Ludovico Sforza. His tenure was turbulent: the valley was sold to the Graubünden leagues in 1496, yet Trivulzio retained nominal lordship for decades amid contested jurisdiction. He also served simultaneously as one of the most prominent condottieri in Italian service, commanding French forces at the Battle of Novara in 1513.
The scudo d'oro type follows Milanese weight standards closely, which makes attribution without the reference numbers genuinely difficult.
