| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse is entirely occupied by a six-line Latin inscription arranged across the field in bold Renaissance capital letters, commemorating the gift (munus) conferred by Emperor Maximilian I upon Giovanni II Bentivoglio. The text reads MAXIMILIANI / IMPERATORIS / MVNVS followed by the date expressed in Roman numerals as MCCCCLXXXIIII, the final four units rendered as IIII on a separate line. The field is enclosed within a plain recessed border with a beaded outer rim, with no subsidiary devices or symbols other than small separating dots between words. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Giovanni II Bentivoglio ruled Bologna not as a formal lord but as a de facto tyrant operating beneath the legal fiction of papal sovereignty — the city was technically under the Church, and he never claimed a title that would have forced a direct confrontation with Rome. This coin was struck just two years before his political position began its final unraveling, as French invasion and shifting alliances eroded the careful equilibrium he had maintained for decades. He was expelled in 1506 when Julius II, determined to reclaim the Papal States in full, entered Bologna without resistance.
The Doppio Quarto denomination itself is specific to the Bentivoglio monetary system in Bologna and does not map onto broader Italian denominational conventions of the period.
