| Obverse description | Central field depicts a standing figure, likely a crowned or helmeted representation associated with the Malatesta lordship, rendered in the crude, flat relief characteristic of hammered billon coinage of the period. The figure is shown in a frontal or near-frontal stance with stylized drapery visible. The peripheral legend in uncial Latin characters reads G R D ARImInI, identifying Galeotto Roberto as Lord of Rimini. The die work is typical of early 15th-century north Italian provincial minting, with irregular flan and weak areas of strike. |
