| Obverse lettering | UMBERTO I RE D`ITALIA 1890 (Translation: Umberto I King of Italy) |
| Reverse description | The reverse is entirely blank, presenting a flat, unadorned field with no design, legend, or device of any kind. This uniface trial piece was struck solely to test the obverse die, and the reverse retains only the plain surface of the planchet with visible surface marks consistent with its experimental nature. |
