Obverse description Full-length figure of an armored knight standing to left, head turned to right, wearing ornate crested helmet and draped mantle; before him, a shield charged with a rampant lion divides the circular Latin legend in the field. The design is rendered in the bold, high-relief style characteristic of late 16th-century Italian hammered coinage.

Reverse description A boldly rendered rampant lion passant to left occupies the central field, contained within a beaded inner circle; the date appears at the top of the field. The surrounding exergual legend, rendered in Latin, reads as a devotional motto and is separated from the inner circle by a second beaded border, consistent with the Leeuwendaalder type widely circulated in the Italian states.
