| Beschrijving voorzijde | Within a beaded inner circle, the ruler's name AYMON is arranged in two columns separated by a central fleur-de-lis, with two additional fleurs-de-lis flanking the arrangement in the field. The peripheral legend reads COMES SABAVDIE (Count of Savoy) in Gothic uncial characters, running around the coin within a beaded border. The overall design is typical of the feudal denier tradition, with the name arranged vertically in a two-by-two grid format. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Aymon of Savoy ruled the county for just seven years before his death in 1343, and his coinage reflects the financial pressures of a territory caught between the competing ambitions of the French crown and the Holy Roman Empire. The double tournois type was a deliberate imitation of the French royal denier tournois — a practical choice that eased circulation across borders where Savoyard and French coins passed interchangeably in local markets.
The billon alloy used here was notoriously inconsistent across Savoyard issues of this period, making weight and fineness vary even within a single issue.
