| Obverse description | A short cross pattée is centered within an inner beaded (reeded) circle, with each arm of the cross extending outward toward the border. The surrounding legend is composed in uncial Latin characters and is attached to the inner circle by a crosslet. The overall design exhibits the rough, irregular fabric characteristic of hammered medieval Italian civic coinage. |
