| Beschrijving voorzijde | Full-length armored figure of Count Antonio Maria Tizzone standing facing, wearing plate armor and holding a shield to each side — to the left, a shield bearing vertical bars (the arms of Desana), and to the right, a shield bearing a cross device. The figure is rendered in a bold, somewhat provincial baroque style characteristic of small Italian state hammered coinage. A circular Latin legend surrounds the central device within the coin's irregular field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Desana was among the smallest sovereign entities in northern Italy — a tiny fief in the Monferrato borderlands whose lords clung to minting rights as much for prestige as for economic utility. Antonio Maria Tizzone ruled during the catastrophic years of the Thirty Years' War's Italian theater, when the region was repeatedly crossed by Spanish, French, and Savoyard forces during the Wars of Mantuan Succession. That a functioning gold coinage was maintained at all through this period is notable.
Fratin 250 is genuinely scarce. Desana's total output across all reigns was negligible, and gold issues from the county are substantially rarer than the silver.
