| Reverse description | A stylized tree occupies the central field, depicted upright with spreading branches, enclosed within a beaded or plain inner circle. The design is characteristic of the heraldic or symbolic reverse types employed on minor billon denominations of the Duchy of Urbino. The surrounding marginal legend names the issuing ruler and his ducal title, interspersed with cross pattée ornaments serving as word dividers. The overall execution reflects the irregular, hand-struck quality typical of Italian States hammered coinage of the early sixteenth century. |
