| Obverse description | Bare-headed bust of Benito Mussolini in right-facing profile, rendered in a bold, high-relief sculptural style typical of Fascist-era commemorative medallic art. The effigy occupies the central field with strong, angular facial features. A curved legend arcs around the periphery, reading BENITO MVSSOLINI with the birth and death years 1883 - 1945 flanking the portrait. The field is otherwise plain with no additional devices. |
