Reverse description The Visconti heraldic arms displayed centrally: a crested helm surmounted by a crowned serpent (biscione) devouring a man, positioned above the Visconti shield bearing the viper, all enclosed within a quadrilobed (quatrefoil) frame. The composition is surrounded by a circular Latin legend identifying the issuing lord, with pellet stops separating the words. The overall design reflects the feudal heraldic conventions of fourteenth-century Lombard coinage.
