| Reverse description | The reverse depicts the enthroned Madonna and Child in a hieratic frontal composition, the Virgin shown seated and crowned, holding the Christ Child on her lap. The figures are rendered in a stylized medieval manner characteristic of northern Italian devotional coinage of the period. A circular legend in Latin surrounds the central image, reading SAN · DEI · GENITR, an abbreviation of Sancta Dei Genitrix (Holy Mother of God). The coin's irregular flan, a hallmark of hammered production, is visible at the periphery. |
