Definição

• A silver coin of Massa di Lu- nigiana, a fief of the Malaspino Family. It appears to have been originally issued under Alberieo I Cibo (1559-1623), with a figure of St. Peter on the reverse, and a stag on the obverse. The latter gave rise to the nickname Lupetta for the coin, as the stag was supposed to bear a re- semblance to a wolf.

  The Cervia was also a coin of Casale Monferrato struck by William II Pale- ologo (1494-1518) ; it' bore the figure of a stag in an enclosure. Promis (i. 185) cites a proclamation of Charles III, Duke of Savoy, dated 1529 which prohibits monete et dinari di Monferrato nomati cervoni.
