Carlino Papale Pubblico Deposited
A silver coin of Rome of the Grosso type. It was first struck by Urban V in 1367, and was issued by Boni- face IX to commemorate his jubilee in 1400. Karlini Papali are referred to in a Milanese ordinance of 1474, and again in a tariff of Bologna of 1588. This coin was gradually reduced in weight, and eventual- ly the Grosso took its place.
