Reverse description A floriated cross pattee occupies the full reverse field, with each arm terminating in decorative fleurs-de-lis, creating an elegant cruciform design characteristic of the scudo d'oro type. A single upright fleur-de-lis is placed at the center top of the cross. The four quarters formed by the cross arms are left open in the field. A continuous Latin legend in capital letters encircles the design within a pearl border, referencing Christ as king. The hammered fabric imparts a slightly uneven surface typical of mid-sixteenth-century Italian gold coinage.
