| Reverse description | Centrally placed quartered coat of arms of the House of Savoy, surmounted by a ducal crown rendered in elaborate Baroque style. The shield displays the dynastic quarterings including the cross of Savoy, lions, and eagles, and is encircled by a decorative chain of linked oval motifs with floral ornaments. The circumferential Latin legend references the ducal titles, with the date 1678 appearing within the legend. The overall composition is bold and heraldically detailed, consistent with high-quality Turin Mint gold coinage of the period. |
