Obverse description The obverse depicts a stylized anthropomorphic cricket character in relief, shown full-length in a lively dancing or gesturing pose, dressed in a buttoned coat and oversized shoes, with antennae raised — representing the Talking Cricket (Grillo Parlante) from Carlo Collodi's Pinocchio. The central figure is surrounded by a dotted border, with the legend arranged along the left rim and the mint mark and location name at the top and bottom of the field respectively.
