| Reverse description | Saint Martin on horseback, depicted in profile to the right, dividing his military cloak with a sword to share half with a kneeling beggar at his feet, rendered in a medieval style within a beaded circular border. The scene alludes to the legendary act of charity by the patron saint of Tours, widely venerated in Lucca. The Latin legend encircles the composition naming the saint. |
