Florin - Amadeus of Piedmont

正面描述	Central field depicts a rampant lion facing left within an inner beaded circle, rendered in bold relief characteristic of late medieval hammered coinage. The lion holds a shield bearing a heraldic device, consistent with the arms of the House of Savoy-Piedmont. A Latin legend encircles the design within the outer border, reading PRINCEPS ACHAYE ZE, identifying the issuer as Prince of Achaea. The lettering is executed in Gothic script with characteristic abbreviation marks. The flan is irregular in shape, typical of hammered gold florins of the period.

附加信息	Amadeus VII inherited the lordship in 1383 following the death of his father Amadeus VI — the "Green Count" — and pursued an aggressive territorial expansion that brought Piedmont into repeated conflict with the Visconti of Milan. The florin issued under his authority mimicked the Florentine standard deliberately, a pragmatic choice for a court conducting trade negotiations across northern Italy where the fiorino d'oro remained the benchmark of commercial trust. MIR 301 covers issues spanning the broader 1368–1402 window, meaning attribution to Amadeus VII specifically requires careful die study.
