| Obverse description | Armored equestrian figure of the lord Giovan Antonio Falletti depicted in right profile, mounted on a horse in full stride, with a shield bearing the Falletti coat of arms visible on the rider's left side. The field is irregular and characteristic of hammered coinage. A partial circular Latin legend surrounds the central device, partially obscured by the flan's irregular edges. |
