I have had Cappelli out and am 98% sure but I have looked at this too long and second guessed myself too often.

Palaeography/Italian history Bluesky, can someone please confirm what currency the red-circled symbol represents (accounts from 1616 Florence)?

Great thread! I have a tattoo of Seshet (surprisingly difficult to photograph your own forearm though!)

I've been looking at this for a full day and have lost the plot a bit.

Could someone tell me the year this was written? (I think I know but another historian has dated it differently and I need to be sure).

TIA!
