| Reverse description | A large crowned capital letter H occupies the central field, serving as the monogram of Honoré II. The crown above the H is rendered in a stylized form typical of Monegasque princely coinage of the period. The surrounding circular Latin legend incorporates the date, reading DEO. IVVANTE. 1640., meaning 'With God's help, 1640.' The overall design is bold and simple, suited to the small copper denomination, with the flan showing characteristic irregularity of hammered production. |
