| Obverse description | Full-length figure of Saint Andrew standing facing, draped in flowing robes, holding a large diagonal cross (saltire) in his left hand and a pyx or chalice in his right hand, set upon a raised pedestal in the lower field. The saint is rendered in bold relief with dynamic drapery typical of late Renaissance Italian die-cutting. A Latin legend surrounds the figure within a beaded inner border, with the mint name MANTVAE inscribed in the lower exergual area. |
