| Obverse description | Bare bust of Vespasiano Gonzaga facing left, rendered in the Renaissance portrait style typical of Northern Italian coinage. The effigy displays the ruler's facial features in fine relief against a flat field. The circular legend surrounds the portrait and reads VESPA GON COL MAR ET C, an abbreviated titulature referencing his titles as Colonel, Marquis, and Count. A beaded or dotted border frames the design at the rim. |
