| Obverse description | Within a beaded inner ring, the obverse reproduces the design of the original 1 Lira coin of 1922, depicting a seated female allegory of Italy upon a throne, facing left, in a classical draped arrangement. The outer annular band carries the legend REPUBBLICA ITALIANA along with the names of the engravers G. Romagnoli, A. Motti, and the incising artist Cassol. The date 1922 appears as a historicizing reference to the original coin being commemorated. The composition faithfully evokes the neoclassical artistic style of the early twentieth-century Italian monetary series. |
