| Obverse description | Crowned rectangular shield bearing the arms of Genoa, flanked by two rampant griffins serving as heraldic supporters. The entire achievement rests upon a decorative base, below which a lion mask appears as a terminal ornament. The composition is rendered in a formal baroque heraldic style characteristic of late Genoese coinage. The surrounding legend in Latin is divided by pellet stops and reads along the coin's circumference. |
