| Beschrijving voorzijde | 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. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Oddantonio da Montefeltro ruled Urbino for less than a year before being murdered in a palace conspiracy on July 22, 1444 — a plot almost certainly orchestrated with the complicity of his own subjects, who resented his tyrannical conduct. His half-brother Federico, who assumed power immediately after, went on to become one of the most celebrated rulers of Renaissance Italy, which has largely overshadowed Oddantonio's brief and violent tenure. Coinage from his reign is accordingly rare by circumstance rather than by any minting policy.
