| Obverse description | An ermine passant to the right in a hunting posture is depicted in the central field, standing upon a horizontal ground line. The letter E appears in the exergue below the ground line, serving as a mint or privy mark. The surrounding legend, separated by pellets, reads GVI·VBALDVS·VRB·DVX·IIII, identifying Guidobaldo II as the fourth Duke of Urbino. The design is executed in the characteristic crude relief of mid-sixteenth-century hammered Italian coinage, with an irregular flan typical of the period. |
