| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field displays a crowned monogram 'H' flanked by fleur-de-lis ornaments, with an additional fleur-de-lis at the base, all surmounted by a large heraldic crown. The design is rendered in relief on a flat, irregularly flan typical of late sixteenth-century hammered billon coinage. A partial Latin legend surrounds the central device, incorporating the date 1587 and the issuer's abbreviated titles. The overall composition reflects the heraldic conventions of the small Italian seigneurial lordships of the period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Cocconato was a tiny feudal county in the Piedmontese Monferrato region, and its right to strike coinage was perpetually contested by the Duchy of Savoy, which absorbed surrounding territories throughout the late sixteenth century. Ercole Radicati's 1587 issue exists precisely because local lords clung to minting privileges as markers of jurisdictional autonomy — the coin itself was a political act as much as a monetary one.
The CNI reference places this among an extremely limited group of documented Cocconato types, suggesting dies were cut in small runs for restricted local circulation.
