Tassorolo coins catalog with values
County of Tassorolo
Tassarolo is a castle on the course between
Savoy, Monferrato
and Genoa.
On November 20, 1532 Charles V granted investiture to the
Spinola family (one of the influential Genoese families). On May
30, 1560 Emperor Ferdinand I elevated the feudal domain to the
rank of imperial county.
In 1736, the county became part of the Duchy of Savoy, but
retained its autonomy.
On October 10, 1818 the county was included in the Kingdom of
Sardinia.
In 1560 the privilege of minting coins was obtained from the
Emperor, but only Count Agostino Spinolo (1604-1616) and his
nephew and heir Filippo (1616-1688) used it, and the most common
coins of the latter - luigino were minted in the name of his
wife Livia Centurione Oltremarine and were intended for trade in
the Levant. The coin completely repeated the design of 1/12 ecu
of Louis
XIV (hence the name) and practically copied the coin of the
same dignity of the Duchy of
Domb, Duchess
Anne Marie Louise of Orleans.
