Obverse description	Allegorical seated figure of Justice, depicted as a draped female facing three-quarters right, wearing a pearl necklace and elaborately coiffed hair. She holds an upright sword in her left hand and a royal crown in her right, symbolizing authority and law. The date 1931 appears to the left of the figure, with the word PROVA (pattern) inscribed to the right in the field. The circular legend IVSTITIA SUPREMA LEX ESTO runs around the periphery, interrupted at the base. The composition is rendered in a refined Renaissance-inspired artistic style characteristic of Italian medallic engraving of the period.
