The mint of the Principality was founded on December 24, 1666 by Prince/Abbot Edward. The currency was then called-like today- LUIGINO, its value used to be a quarter of a French Louis. The old and precious pieces were silver and gold coins bearing the image of Saint Bernard and the inscription "MONASTERIUM LERINENSE PRINCEPES SEPULCRI CONGREGATIONIS CASSINENSIS." Today's LUIGINO is worth 6 US$. TO KNOW HOW TO OBTAIN THESE COLLECTOR ITEMS Click here. Transport & Communications Search Messages
