| Additional information |
Alfonso V of Aragon, who held Majorca as part of his wider crown, spent much of his reign in Naples after conquering it in 1442 — governing his Iberian and Mediterranean territories largely through lieutenants. The Majorcan florin issues of his reign follow the Aragonese florin standard, itself derived from the Florentine original, which had been formally adopted by the Crown of Aragon in the fourteenth century as a deliberate alignment with Italian commercial networks.
Cru#798 is among the scarcer Aragonese-tradition florins attributable to Majorcan production specifically, distinguished in the Crusafont corpus from the broader Aragonese royal issues by mint-specific details.
