Obol Coronat Reforciat - Robert of Anjou

Robert of Anjou ruled Provence as count while simultaneously holding the Neapolitan throne, and his Provençal coinage reflects the administrative separation of the two territories — each with its own monetary system operating in parallel. The obol coronat reforciat belongs to a series of reinforced small change introduced to address chronic debasement of earlier petty coinage, the "reforciat" designation signaling an improved billon standard rather than a distinct denomination.

Rolland's die study identifies meaningful variation across the type's long production window, which stretched across three and a half decades of his reign.
