Obverse description	Full-length standing effigy of Prince Federico Landi, clad in elaborately detailed armor and adorned with the collar of the Order of the Golden Fleece. The figure faces right, resting his right hand on the pommel of a sword while the left hand hangs free at his side. The composition is rendered in high relief in a confident early Baroque style, with the legend surrounding the figure in the field.

Reverse description	A five-line inscription in Latin script is displayed within an ornate cartouche or framed tablet, richly decorated with interlaced strapwork and foliate scrollwork borders characteristic of early 17th-century Italian engraving. The text, presenting the prince's full titulature, is arranged in five lines within the frame. The overall composition fills the reverse field, with the decorative border extending nearly to the coin's edge.
