| Reverse description | Central field occupied by a stylized architectural or monogrammatic device, likely a gateway or tower motif, rendered in bold relief characteristic of small medieval billon coinage. The surrounding circular legend, in uncial Latin lettering, reads OTTO INPERATO R, invoking the imperial authority of Otto in whose name the Republic of Lucca struck this issue. The legend is interrupted by a cross pattee at the commencement, with pellet stops separating the words. The beaded border follows the irregular outline of the flan, and the overall execution is consistent with hammered die-struck technique of the early fourteenth century. |
