| Obverse description | Right-facing uniformed bust of King Victor Emmanuel III, rendered in high relief with fine sculptural detail. The king is depicted in military dress uniform, with the truncation of the neck bearing the engraver's signature. The encircling legend reads VITTORIO EMANVELE III RE D'ITALIA, with the engraver's name D. CALANDRA positioned below the bust truncation. The portrait, executed by Davide Calandra, exhibits a neoclassical naturalism characteristic of early twentieth-century Italian medallic art. |
