| Reverse description | A passant lion rampant to the right — the traditional symbol of Bologna — occupies the central field, rendered in a vigorous, slightly rustic style characteristic of hammered copper provincial coinage. The date 1624 is struck in the lower portion of the field, below the lion. The circular Latin legend MEZO BOLOGNINO (Half Bolognino) runs around the periphery, indicating the denomination in the vernacular Italian form standard for Bolognese subsidiary coinage of this period. |
