Reverse description Draped bust of Caesar Gonzaga facing left, depicted as a Roman-style portrait in the Renaissance tradition, set within a beaded inner circle. The effigy shows the subject in profile with draped shoulders, evoking an antique imperial character. The surrounding legend IMAGO PATRIS GLORIA FIL — meaning 'image of the father, glory of the son' — runs along the periphery, referencing the dynastic heritage of the Gonzaga lords of Guastalla.
