| Opmerkingen |
The Monte di Pietà in Rome was one of the oldest pawnbroking institutions in Europe, founded in 1539 under papal authority to provide credit to the poor as an alternative to usurious moneylenders. By the late eighteenth century it had evolved into something closer to a deposit bank, issuing cedole — bearer notes of fixed denominations — backed by pledged goods and real estate rather than metallic reserve in the conventional sense.
1797 is a significant date for this institution. French forces under Bonaparte were pressing into the Papal States that year, and the Treaty of Tolentino in February stripped the papacy of territory and enormous financial resources. Notes from this period circulated under genuine fiscal strain, and the Monte's ability to honor redemptions was far from guaranteed.
The 85 Scudi denomination is an irregular figure almost certainly dictated by accounting necessity rather than monetary convention.
