bennycunha97 Valued Member Portugal 51 Posts	Posted 11/05/2021 10:02 am I think I fixed it. Will edit the other reply too. It wasn't the ã in Sebastião as the other file contained that too. My best guess is that it was a weird sewarword filter since this coin is named the same as what one would call an illegitimate son, and that's an insult on most other circumstances... Benny PS: Now I have like 3 sets of the same picture with different names in my uploads, is there a way to delete the ones that won't be able to be posted due to the file name?

Yeah, I can see that. (For context, look at this Numista entry.) Awesome coin! Report this Post to the Staff

On your quattrino of Florence ... possibly this coin can be dated to 1474, as we can see the mintmaster's symbol of a capon above St. John's right shoulder. This symbol was used by several mintmasters in the 15th and early 16th centuries, but the closest match I can find (for the capon with a dot) is Recubo di Uguccioni Capponi, as seen on this grosso: https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=8057639 Thanks, and many thanks for that date on the coin! Do you have any references for me to learn more about the mintmaster's symbols of these coins? I have a nice article about the chronology on the florins from the Catalan-Aragonese crown that's established on the same basis of the mintmaster's symbols and I found that very interesting!

tdziemia Pillar of the Community United States 7953 Posts	Posted 11/07/2021 10:37 pm Corpus Nummorum Italicorum Volume XII covers Tuscany, and can be accessed online through the website numismaticadellostato.it. In Italian, which I am sure will not be a problem for you. Plates XI-XII at the end have the mintmasters' marks for 15th century. On p.166-167 you will find descriptions of coins with the capon mint mark of Recubo Capponi (1473, rather than 1474 in that auction listing) On p.179 you will find coins of Piero Capponi (1485), for whom the mark is a capon with the letter P above it.
