 A collection of coin notices gathered by an Italian student, Amerigo Scar latti, was published in Minerva. an Italian periodical. Scarlatti is of the opinion that such. inscriptions, though not intended to be cynical, too often admit of such an interpretation through the irresistible habit of the public of Ignoring the intention of the designer and applying the motto to the coin it. self.
 Thus when Charles IL. king of the two Sicilies. had engraved on his sil- yer ducat the Latin words linus non Suficit." meaning .'One is not enough" 1" all the world insisted on forgetting that the king referred to a single scep- ter and enthusiastically agreed with him that one ducat wasn't enough for any one. r.al.
 On the contrary, a storm of ironical opposition was aroused when Louis de Bourbon, king of Etruria, in the early part of the last century inscribed wi deant Pauperes ct Lactentrr" on his coins. The words mean Let the poor see and rejoice" and of course every one wanted to know why a poor man should rejoice at merely seeing piece of money.
 On the papal coinage of 15T3 bearing the arms of Gregory XIII. are the words "Et Super Hanc Petram" (And upon this rock. Of course the pope and the artist who designed the coin meant the words to refer to the papa cy. but the evil minded applied them so mnliclously to the coin itself that the issue was speedily stopped A sim liar opportunity for evil tongues was afforded when the Knights of Malta coined an issue of dollars with the sign of their order. the Maltese cross. and their motto. "In Hoe Signo Militamus" Qn this sign we combat. The ribald affected to take it as a confession that with them money was truly the sinew of war.
 A Venetian lira dated 14T4 has the somewhat ambiguous motto Tn Tibi Solo Gloria" Gro thee alone the glo- ryl. A seqtiin coined by Cardinal Reg gonico in 1T44 bears the words ''Veni Lumen Cordlum." or Come, thou light of hearts," Clement XII issued coin with an image of the Madonna. with the legend "Causa Nostrae Laetitiae" Cause of our joy), and Venetian piece with an aliegorical figure of Jus tice, with the words ''Nostra in hac elicitas" (Our happiness in this). All of these inscriptions were irrevently diverted by contemporaries from their true object to the money itself.
