| Reverse description | Saint Paul depicted standing in three-quarter view, turned slightly to the right, holding an upright sword in his raised right hand and a closed book in his left hand, serving as the patron saint of Massa Lombarda. The figure is rendered in the bold, somewhat archaic style typical of mid-sixteenth-century Italian hammered silver coinage. A Latin legend identifying the saint and the mint city encircles the design within a beaded border. The composition is characteristic of devotional civic imagery employed on Italian Renaissance minor silver denominations. |
