| Obverse description | Central field displays a crowned heraldic shield bearing the arms of Montefeltro, surmounted by a mural or princely crown, framed within a beaded inner circle. Flanking the shield are stylized episcopal or saintly attributes, likely the crossed keys or crozier associated with Saint Ubaldus, patron of Gubbio. The surrounding legend, rendered in uncial Latin characters, reads EV GV BI VM S V, invoking the city of Gubbio and its patron saint. The flan is irregular and slightly ragged at the edges, as characteristic of mid-fifteenth-century hammered billon coinage from central Italian mints. The overall style is crude but typologically consistent with contemporary Umbrian municipal coinage. |
