| Aanvullende informatie |
Banca Commerciale Italiana issued a series of replica coins in the 1970s reproducing medieval Italian civic and signorial types, this piece reproducing the grosso struck under Henry VII during his Italian campaign of 1310–13. Henry descended into Italy as Holy Roman Emperor-elect seeking to reassert imperial authority over the peninsula's fractious communes — a project that ended with his death near Siena in August 1313 before his campaign could be resolved. Dante, who pinned considerable political hope on Henry's intervention, mourned him in the final cantos of the Commedia.
