| Reverse description | Standing frontal figure of Saint Ludovico (Louis of Toulouse), depicted in bishop's vestments with nimbus, holding attributes of his office, set within the field of the irregular flan. A Latin peripheral legend reading S * LODOVS * PRO * N * surrounds the figure, invoking the saint as patron protector. The crude workmanship and flat relief are characteristic of hammered billon sesini struck in the small feudal mints of the Lunigiana region during the mid-sixteenth century. |
