| Additional information |
Geneva's small billon issues of this period circulated in a city-state perpetually squeezed between French monetary dominance and its own fiercely guarded financial independence. The dual denomination — 6 Deniers and 2 Quarts — reflects the coexistence of French and local accounting systems within the same economy, a practical concession rather than a political one.
