| Obverse description | Heraldic shield bearing the arms of the Colonna family — a column surmounted by a crown — displayed centrally in the field, flanked by two crossed papal lappets or infula. Above the shield, a prominent papal tiara with three crowns. The circular Latin legend surrounds the entire design, identifying Pope Martin V. |

| Reverse description | Two crossed keys of Saint Peter, a symbol of papal authority, displayed saltirewise in the center of the field with their bows pointing downward and their wards upward. A small papal tiara or column surmounts the crossing point. The surrounding circular Latin legend invokes Saints Peter and Paul, separated by distinctive punctuation marks. The type closely follows the Florentine florin tradition in its general arrangement. |
