| Reverse description | Crowned quartered coat of arms of the Ludovisi family occupying the central field, surmounted by a princely crown and supported by two displayed eagles as supporters. The complex quartered shield incorporates multiple heraldic elements including lozengy and fretty divisions, a central inescutcheon, and various charges typical of the composite Ludovisi dynastic arms. The circumferential Latin motto legend ASTRIS ET AVSTRO SECVNDIS encircles the achievement, reading 'favoured by the stars and the south wind.' A beaded border frames the entire design. |
