| Reverse description | Central field depicts a frontal bust of Saint Donatus, patron saint of Arezzo, shown in episcopal vestments with a mitre or nimbus above the head and a crozier or pastoral staff visible to one side, all set within a beaded inner circle. The saint is rendered in a hieratic, Romanesque-influenced style consistent with central Italian civic coinage of the communal period. The surrounding marginal legend in Latin Gothic capitals reads S DONATUS, identifying the patron saint, punctuated by decorative stops and a cross pommée at the legend's commencement. |
