(Translation: Guidobaldo, Duke of Urbino)
Reverse description The reverse displays the quartered heraldic shield of the Montefeltro dynasty at center, featuring the characteristic divisions of the Urbino ducal arms. The shield occupies the central field and is rendered in a bold, slightly irregular style consistent with hammered coinage of the period. A beaded border frames the design. The circular Latin legend * * FIDES * SPES * CARITAS * surrounds the shield, invoking the three theological virtues — Faith, Hope, and Charity — with asterisk separators between each word.
