| Aanvullende informatie |
Charles Emmanuel II was thirteen years old when he nominally assumed rule of Savoy in 1648, with his mother Christine of France serving as regent until 1663 — meaning this 1656 piece was struck under effective French regency control, during a period when Savoyard fiscal policy was deeply entangled with Parisian interests. The 40 Scudi denomination itself was an instrument of prestige rather than commerce; no ordinary transaction required 132 grams of gold, and these were produced for diplomatic gifts, treasury transfers, and the theater of dynastic power.
Survivors are rare in any condition. The dies required for a coin of this module wore quickly and were not always re-cut with consistency.
