| Reverse description | The reverse displays a rampant lion to the right, the traditional heraldic symbol of Bologna, rendered in bold relief typical of the hammered technique. The lion stands on its hind legs with forepaws raised, occupying the central field. The surrounding Latin legend BONONIA DOCET runs along the circumference of the coin. The design is simple yet bold, in keeping with the civic coinage tradition of the Bologna mint during the early sixteenth century. |
