| Reverse description | The reverse depicts the enthroned figure of Saint Hilary, nimbate and mitred, shown in a frontal hieratic pose. The saint holds a crozier in his left hand while raising his right hand in a formal gesture of blessing. The figure is rendered in the stylized, planar manner characteristic of Italian communal coinage of the 13th and 14th centuries. The surrounding field carries the Latin legend identifying the patron saint of Parma. The composition reflects the devotional iconographic conventions common to ecclesiastical civic coinage of the period. |
