Reverse description A schematic frontal bust of a saint occupies the central medallion, rendered in the flat, hieratic style characteristic of 13th–14th century Lombard communal coinage. The face is depicted full-face with stylized hair, and the figure is surrounded by a beaded inner circle. A crown or nimbus is visible above the head, identifying the figure as a sanctified personage, likely a patron saint. The surrounding legend in Latin characters reads IMPATOR, a contracted form referencing imperial authority.
