| Obverse description | Facing bust of the Holy Face (Volto Santo) of Lucca, depicted frontally with a long beard, crowned, and wearing a draped garment ornamented with pellets at the neckline. The effigy is enclosed within a beaded inner circle, with the legend commencing at the left. The bold, stylised relief is characteristic of the Lucchese hammered coinage of the late 13th and early 14th centuries. |
