Obverse description Central device depicting a stylized castle or city gate with two towers, rendered in bold relief within a beaded inner circle. The gateway is shown with an arched opening between the two flanking towers, characteristic of the Genoese civic emblem. The field between the beaded circle and the outer rim carries the circular legend in uncial Latin characters. The strike is irregular, as typical of hammered coinage of this period, with the design slightly off-center on the flan.
