| Obverse description | Draped bust of Honoré II, Prince of Monaco, facing right, with long flowing hair, rendered in the Baroque portrait style typical of mid-17th century hammered coinage. The effigy shows the prince in armour with a lace cravat visible at the truncation. The encircling Latin legend reads HON: II D: G PRI: MONOECI, abbreviated for Honoratus II Dei Gratia Princeps Monoeci, interrupted by the bust and bordered by a beaded inner circle. |
