| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse displays a prominent cross pattée or ornate cross motif occupying the central field, dividing the coin into four quarters, consistent with the devotional iconography common to Italian feudal gold coinage of the early seventeenth century. The surrounding circular legend reads IN HOC SIGNO VINCES, the celebrated Constantinian motto meaning 'In this sign you shall conquer,' reflecting the religious and dynastic pretensions of the Tizzone lords of Desana. The overall design is characteristic of hammered gold scudi of the period, with a slightly irregular flan and bold if somewhat crude die engraving. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Desana was among the smallest feudal territories in the Monferrato region — a pocket county whose lords punched well above their weight in coin production. The Tizzoni family held minting rights as imperial fiefs under the Habsburgs, a privilege they exploited aggressively in the early seventeenth century, striking gold scudi that circulated far beyond their diminutive domain. Antonio Maria Tizzone's issues from this period are now extremely rare survivors, the output of a mint that ceased to function entirely when Spanish pressure on the smaller Lombard lordships intensified through the 1630s.
