Beschrijving voorzijde A bold cross pattée occupies the central field, enclosed within a raised reeded inner circle. The outer field between the inner circle and the coin's irregular edge is decorated with a repeating pattern of crescent moons and small crosses alternating around the circumference, characteristic of the Agontano type. The circumferential legend in Latin runs around the outer field. The overall style is consistent with central Italian communal coinage of the medieval period.

Aanvullende informatie

The agontano takes its name from Ancona, whose grosso became the dominant trade silver of the central Adriatic from the mid-thirteenth century onward — imitated so widely across the Marche that municipalities like Ascoli Piceno struck their own versions to avoid dependence on a rival city's coinage. Ascoli's commune gained minting rights during the fragmented signorial period when imperial authority over the region had effectively collapsed, leaving individual cities to negotiate monetary privilege directly with local power brokers.

CNI XIII places this among a small, poorly-differentiated group, reflecting how little the Ascoli series has been studied relative to Ancona's own issues.
