| Obverse description | Central field depicts the stylized castle or tower of Genoa — the emblem of the city — rendered in Gothic relief characteristic of medieval Genoese hammered coinage. The tower motif is flanked by decorative elements within a beaded inner circle. The surrounding legend in uncial Latin reads P C DVX IAnVE XXVIII P C, identifying Paul of Campofregoso as the twenty-eighth Doge of Genoa. The inscription is arranged continuously around the periphery between an inner beaded border and the irregular coin edge. The overall die style is consistent with mid-fifteenth-century Genoese goldsmith work. |
