| Reverse description | A radiant sun rising over a rocky horizon, its rays emanating powerfully across the lower field, flanked by billowing clouds and vegetation at either side. An eagle soars in flight above to the upper right, toward the rising sun, symbolizing noble aspiration. The date 1679 appears in the lower portion of the legend, with the Latin motto divided across the circular field. The composition is bold and emblematic, characteristic of Italian Baroque dynastic imagery. |
