| Reverse description | Saint John the Baptist, the patron saint of Florence, is depicted enthroned and facing forward, robed in a rough animal fur garment. In his raised right hand he holds a long staff surmounted by a cross, while his left hand presents a scroll inscribed ECCE. The figure is rendered in a hieratic, frontal style typical of early Florentine medieval coinage. A mintmaster's symbol precedes the circumferential Latin legend, which runs between two beaded borders. |
