| Obverse description | Central field dominated by a crowned eagle displayed, wings spread and facing forward, rendered in a bold, somewhat crude hammered style characteristic of small Renaissance billon coinage. The eagle, heraldic emblem of the Della Rovere dynasty and the Duchy of Urbino, is depicted with detailed feathering on the wings and talons visible at the base. The device is set within a beaded or dotted inner border, with the surrounding legend partially legible along the coin's irregular periphery. The overall execution reflects the limitations of small-denomination hammered coinage of the mid-sixteenth century Italian states. |
