| Reverse description | A large six-pointed star (✶) in high relief occupies the center of the field, enclosed within a laurel wreath formed by two branches tied at the base with a pair of pellets or a knot. The wreath is rendered with boldly striated leaves radiating outward from the central binding, consistent with Ravenna mint practice for this denomination. The reverse type is entirely devoid of legend, relying solely on the star and wreath motif as identifying symbols of the quarter siliqua series. The irregular flan partially truncates the wreath on one side. |
