Giulio (coin)

By order of 20 July 1504 the Pope established: "Reformetur stampae monetariae pro ducatis, carlenis, bononiensis etc.

Cogitetur de cunio monetae si posset reduci Urbs ad monetam papalem exclusa forensi etc.".

[1] The carleni (or carlini) were then reformed and changed their name to giuli, so as to distinguish them from the previous ones.

[1] The first minting of Julius II bore the papal arms on the obverse and the saints Peter and Paul on the reverse.

[1] The last coin minted with this name was the silver giulio struck by Pius VII in 1817; it weighed 2,642 g and had a title of 917/1000.
