Obverse description Crowned quartered shield of arms in an ornate horsehead-shaped cartouche, bearing the complex heraldic devices of the della Rovere dynasty and associated territories. The shield is surmounted by a ducal crown and displays multiple quartered fields with detailed armorial charges. A circular legend in Latin surrounds the central device, running along the outer border of the coin within a beaded rim.
