Definição

• A silver coin of Genoa issued in 1668 and later by the Banco di San Giorgio, under Cesare Gentile. It has on the obverse a crowned shield supported by two griffins, and on the reverse a figure of St. George on horseback. From the latter circumstance it is sometimes called Giorgino. Its value represented 24 Soldi.

  The Luigino was also issued by the Spinola family of Ronco, Tassarolo, and Arquata; by Violante Lomellini for Torfiglia; and by the Malaspina family for Posdinovo (1667-1677). It was copied from the half Ecu or piece of five Sols struck at Trevoux. See Timmin, and conf. Poey d'Avant, Monnaies feudales de France. 1860. (viii. 109).
