Obverse description	Armored and draped bust of Francesco d'Este facing right, with short curly hair and beard, wearing a cuirass with ornate pauldron visible at the shoulder. The effigy is rendered in a bold, high-relief Renaissance style typical of northern Italian hammered coinage. The peripheral legend reads FRANCISCVS ESTENSIS, separated by rosette ornaments, and is enclosed between an inner circle and a beaded border.
