Obverse description Within a reeded inner circle, the abbreviated legend is distributed around a central pellet, with the letters arranged so that those completing the inscription appear prominently in the field. A small shield bearing the city arms of Pesaro is placed at the top of the design. The overall style is characteristic of mid-fifteenth-century Italian hammered coinage, with an irregular flan and somewhat crude but deliberate lettering.
