| Aanvullende informatie |
Louis I ruled Monaco under French protection following the 1641 Treaty of Péronne, which ended Grimaldi dependence on Spain after nearly a century and a half of Castilian alignment. The shift in political allegiance required coinage that visually and materially confirmed the new order — high-purity gold struck in a principality with almost no domestic commercial need for it, minted for prestige as much as exchange.
The two-year production window likely reflects the small scale of the Monaco mint, which operated intermittently and never rivaled neighboring Savoyard or Genoese output.
