Beschrijving voorzijde Central field displays the papal arms of Pope Leo X (Medici), an ovoid shield bearing the Medici balls (palle) surmounted by the papal tiara and the crossed keys of Saint Peter, all rendered in the hammered style characteristic of early sixteenth-century Italian coinage. The shield is set within a plain inner border, with the legend disposed around the periphery reading LEO PAPA DECIMVS, identifying the issuing pontiff. The heraldic composition is bold and finely struck for a hammered issue, with the tiara and keys prominently raised above the shield. The coin's irregular flan and beaded border are typical of Macerata mint production of this period.

Beschrijving keerzijde Two standing full-length figures of the Apostles Saint Paul (left) and Saint Peter (right), each nimbed, depicted in draped robes in the Renaissance ecclesiastical style. Saint Paul holds a sword in his right hand and a book in his left, while Saint Peter holds the keys of Heaven and what appears to be a book or binding. Between and below the two figures a small kneeling supplicant figure is visible, representing the donor or the city. The legend S PAVLVS S PETRVS identifies the two saints, and the mint signature MARC appears in the lower exergual area, denoting the Macerata mint.
