Commentary


Ce type monétaire fut frappé de manière certaine à Bourg-en-Bresse et Nyon et peut-être à Avigliana, pendant la régence de Bonne de Bourbon (1391-1398). Avec cette légende (étoile sur annelet après ITALIA), cette monnaie pourrait être de l’atelier d’Avigliana.

Historical background


SAVOY - COUNTY OF SAVOY - AMADEUS VIII (COUNT)

(1398-1416)

Amédée VIII (1383-1434) is the son of Amédée VII and Bonne de Berry. He ascended the count's throne in 1391, under the regency of his mother until the year 1398. Savoy was erected into a duchy on February 19, 1416. He died in 1434. In his coinage there are three very different periods: regency (1391-1398); count (1398-1416); duke (1416-1434).
