| Obverse lettering | IO IA TRI MAR VIGLE ET MARES FRAN |
| Reverse description | A bold fleur-de-lis cross occupies the center of the field, its four arms each terminating in a fleur-de-lis, with a small quatrefoil or annulet at the central intersection. The cross is rendered in high relief with fine detail, echoing the French-influenced coinage of the period. The surrounding legend, running within a beaded border, reads XPS VINCIT XPS REGNAT XPS IMPERAT — the celebrated Christogram acclamation proclaiming Christ conquers, reigns, and commands. The overall design closely follows the French écu au soleil type adopted by Italian lords under French influence. |
