| Obverse description | Central papal arms displayed within a distinctive decagonal (horsehead-shaped) shield, itself set within concentric quadrilobes that frame the composition. The shield bears the della Rovere heraldic device associated with Pope Julius II. The surrounding legend is rendered in Latin capital letters, separated by floral or pellet stops, and runs along the coin's periphery. The overall design reflects the refined Italian Renaissance hammered coinage style typical of early sixteenth-century Papal mint production. |
