So it was decided in Council on 9th [p.62] July, 1590 to resort again to fiduciary coinage &quot;per sovvenire alle necessità del Comun Tesoro.&quot; An amount of 6,000 scudi of copper was to be minted, but the Grandmaster was empowered to mint more than that amount if he deemed it necessary. [11] Verdalle, however, seems to have minted no more than 6,000 scudi of copper. [12] The Grandmaster&#039;s copper coins were the most varied to date, consisting not only of the fiduciary four and two tarì pieces, but also of carlini, cinquine, grani, three-piccioli pieces and piccioli.
