| Beschrijving voorzijde | Tall draped bust of Guidobaldo I da Montefeltro in left profile, depicted with long flowing hair rendered in fine parallel lines, wearing armour visible at the truncation. The effigy occupies the majority of the coin's field in a commanding, elongated presentation characteristic of late 15th-century Italian Renaissance coinage. A circular Latin legend runs along the periphery, separated by floral rosette stops, reading GVIDVS VB VRBINI DVX. The irregular flan and variable strike are typical of hammered production at the Urbino mint during this period. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse displays a crowned heraldic shield bearing the quartered arms of the Montefeltro dynasty, surmounted by a ducal crown and flanked by additional heraldic devices. A circular Latin legend runs around the periphery, punctuated by floral rosette stops, reading FIDES SPES CARITAS, invoking the three theological virtues of Faith, Hope, and Charity. The field shows typical flatness and surface irregularity consistent with hammered bronze coinage of the period. The overall composition reflects the devotional and dynastic symbolism common to Italian Renaissance small coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Guidobaldo I inherited Urbino from his father Federico da Montefeltro in 1482 at age ten, and his reign was anything but stable — Cesare Borgia seized the duchy outright in 1502, forcing Guidobaldo into exile. He was restored the following year through a combination of papal politics and popular support, but the interruption almost certainly disrupted mint operations, and attributing specific quattrino dies to either side of that gap remains unresolved. CNI XIII lists five specimens under this type, a tight cluster that reflects the low survival rate for base-metal Urbino coinage generally.
