| Reverse description | Full-length standing figure of Saint Geminianus, patron saint of Modena, depicted in episcopal vestments with mitre and crozier, facing front. Below the saint, a detailed view of the city of Modena is rendered, showing the cathedral and surrounding towers as a stylized skyline. The composition is framed by a circular Latin legend invoking the saint's name. The design reflects the devotional iconography characteristic of Este dynastic coinage, with the city view serving as a heraldic emblem of Modena. |
