Lupetta Público Deposited
A silver coin of Massa di Luaigiana, a lief 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 resemblance to a wolf.
