| Additional information |
Gregory of Montelongo came to Aquileia not as a churchman but as a papal legate and military commander — he had spent years in northern Italy organizing Guelph resistance against Frederick II before being appointed Patriarch in 1251. The Patriarchate at this period functioned as a genuine territorial power caught between competing imperial and papal claims, and coinage was as much a political instrument as a fiscal one.
Bernardi 19 is among the scarcer attributions in the Aquileian denaro sequence.
