| Obverse description | Within a central beaded inner circle, a city gateway (castello) rendered in bold relief, characteristic of Genoese coinage tradition. A circular legend in uncial Latin characters surrounds the beaded border, with the mint master's initial letter appearing at the conclusion of the legend. The overall fabric is irregular, as typical of hammered medieval gold coinage, with the design elements showing the flat, stylized aesthetic of 14th-century Italian municipal issues. |
