| Obverse description | Draped bust of Pope Sixtus V facing left, rendered in a crude but expressive hammered style characteristic of late 16th-century Italian minor coinage. The pontiff's bearded effigy is depicted wearing papal vestments, with the legend arranged around the periphery of the irregular flan. The portrait occupies the majority of the field, with visible flan irregularities consistent with hand-struck production. |
