| Reverse description | Central field bears a four-line Latin inscription NON / PRODERVNT / IN · DIE / VLTIONIS, enclosed within an elaborate Baroque cartouche formed by an ornate wreath of oak and laurel branches with acanthus scrollwork and ribbon ties at the base. At the apex of the cartouche, a finely detailed grotesque mask (mascherone) with flowing foliage flanks the crowning element, a hallmark motif of Roman Baroque coinage of the period. The toothed border frames the entire composition, with no additional peripheral legend. The overall design conveys a solemn scriptural admonition drawn from the Book of Proverbs. |
