Obverse description Saint George depicted as an armored knight on horseback, charging to the right, thrusting a lance downward to slay the dragon prostrate beneath the horse's hooves. The composition is rendered in vigorous Renaissance style with fine detailing on the armor and horse's mane. The circular legend surrounds the central device within a beaded inner border, naming the three co-ruling counts.
