| Reverse description | Full-length armored figure of a saint — identified by the legend as Sant'Adriano (S·ADN) — standing facing, crowned, wearing Roman military dress with a short skirt, holding a palm branch of martyrdom in his right hand and a standard or cross-staff in his left. The figure stands in high relief within the field, with the Latin legend distributed around the periphery within a beaded border. The iconography reflects the patron-saint devotional tradition common to Italian Renaissance ducal coinage. |
