Reverse description Draped bust of Saint Quirinus, patron saint of Correggio, facing right in profile, wearing ecclesiastical vestments with ornamental detail visible at the shoulder and chest. The figure is rendered in a somewhat crude but characteristic style consistent with small hammered billon coinage of the late sixteenth century. The surrounding circular legend, separated by a beaded border, identifies the city of Correggio and invokes the saint's patronage. The overall composition is typical of the anonymous issues struck under the joint rule of the counts Gilbert, Camille, and Fabrice.
