playing cards from Romagna, by modanio. 40 cards
another italian pattern.
The card on the far left ( that is blank save for the maker's name & a green thing in the middle) is the ace of coins. the reason for the sparse decoration is the fact on this card went the tak stamp, and as a result, space had to be cleared for it.
also note the king of coins. in older editions of this pattern, he is shown about to stab hmself with the ax he is holding... the same as the english king of hearts!
