| Reverse description | An ornate fimbriated cross with lily terminals at each arm occupies the centre of the field, its four quadrants accommodating the alternating coats of arms of the legate Cardinal Alessandro Sforza and the civic arms of Bologna. The design is executed in the characteristic hammered style of the Bologna papal mint, with fine detailing on the heraldic charges. The reverse legend BONONIA DOCET runs along the circumference within a beaded border, affirming Bologna's identity as a seat of learning. |
