Obverse description A large stylized fleur-de-lis, the heraldic emblem of Florence, occupies the central field, rendered with fine detail including foliate scrolls and berry clusters at the tips of each lobe. The design follows the long-standing Florentine gold florin tradition, maintaining the iconic lily motif. The circular legend surrounding the device reads IOAN·GASTO·I·D·G·M·DVX·ETR·, identifying Grand Duke Giovanni Gastone I of Tuscany by the grace of God. The coin presents a milled edge and a well-struck, slightly convex field typical of late Medici coinage.
