Reverse description San Petronio, patron saint of Bologna, depicted enthroned and facing front in episcopal vestments, holding a model of the city of Bologna in his left hand. The figure is rendered in a schematic, flat medieval style with minimal detail, consistent with the small module and hammered technique of this issue. A circular Latin legend surrounds the central figure, punctuated by pellet stops. The overall composition reflects the devotional civic iconography characteristic of Bolognese ecclesiastical coinage of the late fifteenth century.
