| Obverse description | Central shield bearing the Colonna family arms — a column surmounted by a crown — enclosed within a beaded inner circle. Above the shield, the papal tiara is prominently displayed, underscoring the pontifical authority of Martin V. The surrounding legend in Gothic uncial characters reads MARTINVS · P · P · QVINTVS, identifying the issuer as Pope Martin V. The overall composition is characteristic of early 15th-century Italian hammered gold coinage, with bold relief on an irregularly shaped flan. |
