<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Stater23, post: 26315765, member: 173786&quot;]Thank you very much for your reply and for the photo! That’s really helpful. I wasn’t aware that so many regions imitated the florin. The one from Perpignan under Peter III is particularly interesting. I’ll look into that direction for further comparison. If you notice any more details or have further insights, I’d really appreciate it.</p><p>Looking closely at the photos I posted, I think there&#039;s a high probability that the florin may have originally been a <i>genovino</i> and later overstruck as a florin. Perhaps this was due to the florin being a more important or widely accepted currency compared to the genovino—or maybe even due to political tensions between Florence and Genoa, trying to reduce the circulation of genovini in favor of florins. Do you also notice any remaining symbols or traces from an earlier coin beneath the florin?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
