Comment
This is imitating a Neapolitan gigliato.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Gigliato coin is that it was imitating Roberto I il Saggio, which means "Roberto I the Wise" in Italian. This suggests that the coin was created as a tribute or homage to King Roberto I, who ruled the Kingdom of Naples from 1309 to 1343.
