The Piemont Pattern

These cards are closely related to the Genoese pattern. Also note the dividing line that is horizontal (not diagonal). This game exists in three versions: 40 cards (per suit: 1-7, J, Q, K; most common), 36 cards (per suit: 6-10, J, Q, K, A) and 52 cards (per suit: 1-10, J, Q, K).
