I- 68 Cavalli may possibly be the engraver of some small coins of Gian Francesco II. of Mantua, with the Madonna on P1L. Among the coins, for which he cut the dies at Hall are Half Thalers (Testoni) with busts of Maximilian and Bianca. A sketch for the latter and casts of a large medallion in wax are still extant. In his style is a small struck medal of Maximilian with the emperor on horseback, and Mars, Faith and Justice on the reverse. Doubtful is the attribution to him of the restored Marriage thalers of Maximilian and Mary of Burgundy (erroneoustly dated I479) and the medal ot Francesco Bonatti. Cf. G.F.
