| Obverse description | Central device comprising the crowned arms of the Republic of Genoa — a shield bearing the cross of St. George — flanked by two rampant griffins serving as heraldic supporters. The shield is surmounted by a ducal crown of elaborate form. The surrounding Latin legend reads DUX · ET GUB · REIP · GENU ·, an abbreviation for Dux et Gubernatores Reipublicae Genuensis, affirming the collective authority of the Doge and Governors of the Republic. The coin exhibits finely milled borders and a bold, high-relief rendering typical of late Genoese Republican gold coinage. |
