| Obverse description | Full-length facing effigy of Vincenzo I Gonzaga in elaborately detailed plate armor, crowned, standing erect within the field. The duke holds regalia in his hands, with his figure rendered in the high-relief hammered style characteristic of late Renaissance Italian coinage. A beaded inner border frames the design, with the Latin legend distributed around the periphery reading VINC D G DVX MA IIII ET MON FE II, identifying him as Duke of Mantua IV and Marquis of Montferrat II. |
