  • Il maestro di zecca o più anticamente mastro di zecca, era un incarico fondamentale nella gestione di una zecca, titolo concesso solitamente al direttore di uno stabilimento di produzione di monete. Il termine di "maestro di zecca", pur essendo stato utilizzato sino all'Ottocento, di fatti affonda le proprie radici nel medioevo e si radica profondamente per tutto il Rinascimento, ovvero in quei periodi storici in cui uno stato aveva generalmente più di una zecca. I maestri di zecca divennero figure ancora più esclusive con la formazione degli stati nazionali dove i nuovi governi cercarono di centralizzare le zecche, solitamente nelle capitali. (it)
