| Aversbeschreibung | Central field displays the letters 'FE' or a stylized monogram, possibly referencing the FERT device of Savoy, set within a plain inner circle. The surrounding legend in uncial Latin characters reads AMEDEVS COMES, identifying the issuer as Count Amadeus. The legend is bordered by a beaded inner ring and the flan shows the characteristic irregular edge of hammered medieval coinage. The overall design is characteristic of late 14th to early 15th century Savoyard billon coinage, with a flat, worn relief typical of small-denomination circulation pieces. |

| Reversbeschreibung | Central field bears a bold plain cross pattée set within a plain inner circle, with the arms extending nearly to the inner border, a hallmark of Savoyard feudal coinage of this period. A secondary inner beaded or cable border separates the central motif from the surrounding marginal legend. The outer legend in uncial Latin characters reads DE SABAVDIE, completing the full title of Count Amadeus of Savoy begun on the obverse. The flan is irregular in shape, consistent with hammered production, and the die workmanship reflects the modest artisanal standards typical of small billon denominations of the Viennois monetary system. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Amadeus VIII inherited the County of Savoy in 1391 at age seven, ruling first under regency before consolidating genuine authority in the early fifteenth century. He would later become the only ruling prince in history to be elected antipope — serving as Felix V from 1439 to 1449 — but these billon issues predate that episode entirely, belonging to the period when he was methodically absorbing neighboring lordships and expanding Savoyard territorial coherence across the western Alps.
The Viennois designation reflects Savoyard jurisdiction over the Dauphiné borderlands, a contested zone that had formally passed to the French crown in 1349 but whose monetary geography remained tangled for decades after.
