| Obverse description | Full-length frontal figure of Saint Michael the Archangel, depicted standing atop a dragon, wings outstretched and arms extended in a commanding pose. The saint is rendered in a stylized medieval manner characteristic of Dalmatian civic coinage of the late 15th century. A circular Latin legend surrounds the central device within the coin's field. |
