Una moneta inedita nelle collezioni del Museo archeologico di Bologna: il fiorino d’oro battuto da Firenze alle porte di Pisa nel 1363

The article presents an unlisted gold florin of Florence, identified as struck near Pisa on May 30th 1363 by the victorious Florentine armies leaded by Pietro Farnese. In addition to the usual privy mark of the first semester 1363, this florin is characterized by a fox lying on its back positioned under the feet of St. John, symbolizing the defeated Pisans. This florin adds to the known silver grosso with the same symbol, already identified during the 18th century, and confirms evidence brought by registrations of the mint of Florence and sometimes unclear contemporary chronicles. The coin was part of the collection formed by the Italian artist Pelagio Palagi (1775–1860) and it is now preserved in the Archaeological Museum of Bologna.
