| Reverse description | Central quartered coat of arms of the Tizzone family, surmounted by a ornate open count's crown, with the shield divided into quadrants bearing alternating heraldic devices including a rampant lion and vertical barry stripes, with a central inescutcheon featuring the Imperial eagle. The arms are framed by elaborate strapwork or cartouche mantling typical of late Renaissance heraldic design. The surrounding circular legend SOLI DEO HONOR ET GLORIA, meaning 'To God alone be honour and glory', is separated from the central device by a beaded border. The entire composition reflects the elaborate heraldic conventions of early 17th-century Italian feudal coinage. |
