| Obverse description | Draped bust of Pope Urban VIII facing right, set within a beaded inner circle. The papal effigy is rendered in high relief with fine drapery detail characteristic of the period. Below the truncation, a small Sforza escutcheon flanked by the Barberini heraldic bees appears in the field. The surrounding legend, separated from the central device by the beaded border, carries the pontifical title and regnal date in capital Latin letters. |
