| Reverse description | A three-quarter length frontal figure of St. John the Baptist, patron saint of Florence, is depicted in high relief at the centre of the field. The saint raises his right hand in a gesture of benediction, while his left hand supports a long cross-tipped staff. The figure is rendered in the austere Gothic style typical of early fourteenth-century Florentine coinage. A beaded inner circle frames the central device, with the saint's abbreviated name and title appearing in the surrounding circular legend punctuated by a rosette stop. |
