Comments

The workshop of Passerano was under the authority of the Radicati, Counts of Cocconato. Although the privilege of minting coins had been granted by Frederick III at the end of the 13th century, the workshop did not start minting coins until 1581 and stopped issuing them in 1598.Automatically translated
