| Obverse description | Central field displays the papal arms of Alexander VI — a quartered shield bearing the Borgia bull passant — surmounted by the papal tiara and flanked by the crossed keys of Saint Peter, all set within a plain inner circle. The design is rendered in bold relief characteristic of late 15th-century Roman hammered coinage. A beaded border encloses the circumferential Latin legend. The composition reflects the established iconographic programme of Apostolic Camera florins, emphasising pontifical authority through heraldic symbolism. |
