| Reverse description | The reverse presents the elaborate arms of the city of Bologna, rendered as two large interlaced and floriated capital letters forming a decorative monogram, flanked by scrolling foliate ornaments and surmounted by a cross-bearing orb. The civic legend * BONON * DOCET encircles the design, separated by star stops, affirming Bologna's ancient motto. The entire device is contained within a plain inner border, with the milled rim enclosing the composition in a style consistent with Papal provincial copper issues of the period. |
