Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Fiorino d'oro ND (1387) from Republic of Lucca is that it was minted during the reign of Paolo Guinigi, who was the Lord of Lucca from 1362 to 1400. During his rule, he promoted trade and commerce, and the minting of this gold coin was likely a part of his efforts to establish Lucca as a major economic power in the region.
