Reverse description A cross pattée is centrally positioned within a polylobe frame whose lobes are decorated with alternating fleur-de-lis and rosettes, mirroring the obverse design vocabulary. The cross arms broaden toward their squared terminals in the classic pattée form. The circumscribed Latin uncial legend invokes Conrad, King of the Romans — a traditional Genoese numismatic formula referencing the city's imperial privilege — and terminates with the mint master's initial as a control mark. The harmonious pairing of cross and polylobe frame is characteristic of the Genoese genovino series.
