| Reverse description | Facing nimbate bust of Saint Terence, the patron saint of Pesaro, depicted in clerical vestments with a star device visible in the field. The bust is rendered in a crude but expressive medieval style typical of small hammered billon issues of fifteenth-century Italian lordships. A beaded inner border frames the design. The surrounding uncial Latin legend identifies the saint as S TERENTIVS, with pellet stops separating the words. |
