| Beschrijving voorzijde | Left-facing bust of Francesco II Sforza, Duke of Milan, depicted in Renaissance style wearing a distinctive flat-brimmed ducal cap and draped mantle with folded collar. The portrait is set within a beaded inner circle framed by a lobed decorative border. The surrounding legend, separated by small ornamental stops, reads FRANCISCVS SF VICECO DVX MEDIOLAI II, identifying the sitter as Francesco II Visconti-Sforza, second Duke of Milan. The reeded rim borders the entire composition. The engraving closely replicates the medallic portrait tradition of fifteenth-century Lombard coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Banca Commerciale Italiana issued a series of silver replicas in the early 1990s reproducing coinage associated with the great Milanese banking and mercantile families — this piece referencing Francesco II Sforza, the last Sforza Duke of Milan, whose reign ended in 1535 when the duchy reverted to Habsburg control under Charles V following his death without an heir. BCI, itself founded in Milan in 1894 with heavy German and Austrian capital, had a particular institutional interest in projecting continuity with northern Italian financial history.
