Players earn 1 point for ''sweeping'' the table, that is, for clearing the table of all face-up cards; 1 point for capturing the most cards; 1 point for capturing the most cards of the coin suit; 1 point for capturing the 7 of coins (the ''settebello''); and 1 point for the best ''primiera,'' that is, the best assemblage of high-value cards from each of the four suits. Distinctive features include the crowned eagle forming the background to the Ace of Coins, red faces in the centre of the coins themselves, the horse on the Cavalier of Coins riding away from the viewer [18] and the King of Coins brandishing an axe.
