Reverse description A cross pattée is displayed at the center of a polylobe frame, its arms terminating at the lobes and the interstices filled with alternating rosettes and trefoils in a manner mirroring the obverse decoration. The entire composition is enclosed within a beaded circle. The surrounding annular legend, inscribed in uncial Latin, invokes the name and title of the Holy Roman Emperor Conrad as overlord — a formulaic claim of imperial authority standard on Genoese genovini. The legend concludes with the initial letter of the responsible mint official, serving as a control mark.
