| Obverse description | Youthful bareheaded bust of Guglielmo IX Paleologo facing left, wearing a soft barrette cap, with curled hair visible beneath; the effigy is rendered in the Renaissance portrait style characteristic of late 15th-century Italian coinage. The bust is set within a beaded inner border, with the circumferential Latin legend reading GVLIELMVS MAR MONT FER ZC distributed around the field. The die workmanship reflects the hammered technique typical of Montferrat ducal coinage of the period. |
