| 附加信息 |
Comtat Venaissin was a papal enclave within Provence — not French territory, but a direct possession of the Holy See since 1274 — and its coinage answered to Rome, not Paris. This quadruple écu was struck under the legation of Octave Acquaviva d'Aragona, appointed by Clement VIII to govern the Comtat from Avignon. The Acquaviva appointment was politically deliberate: the family carried both Spanish royal blood and impeccable curial credentials at a moment when the papacy was navigating the fraught reconciliation of Henri IV with the Church.
Acquaviva's legation produced a notably small body of coinage, making issues from his tenure among the rarer products of the Avignon mint.
