| Reverse description | Central design features a floriated or ornamented cross with decorative elements at the terminals, set within a beaded or plain inner circle. The surrounding peripheral legend reads DUX • SAB • P • PED • followed by the date, identifying Emmanuele Filiberto as Duke of Savoy and Prince of Piedmont. The cross motif is a traditional Savoyard emblematic device, rendered in the bold, somewhat irregular style characteristic of hammered silver coinage of the period. The field shows typical die-struck surface texture associated with mid-sixteenth-century workshop production. |
