Additional information

Shkodër's copper follari were issued during the city's prolonged contest between Venetian administration and Ottoman encroachment — Venice held Shkodër from 1396, and the town's municipal coinage reflects the administrative ambiguity of a frontier outpost trying to maintain commercial function under constant military pressure. The siege of 1478–1479 ended Venetian control permanently, making any issue from this series a product of that compressed and violent window.
