| Reverse description | A crescent moon displayed at centre within an inner circle, serving as the heraldic device of the Gonzaga rulers of Mantua. The surrounding field carries the divided legend MANTVAE and SIC, the latter being a reference to the Gonzaga impresa. The composition is simple and bold, characteristic of small-denomination hammered gold coinage of the late sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries. |
