Reverse description	Heraldic eagle displayed with wings spread, standing facing on a horizontal groundline, head turned to the left. The bird's plumage is rendered in the bold, shallow relief characteristic of hammered billon or bronze coinage of the period. The field is otherwise plain and devoid of legend or additional devices, the eagle serving as the dynastic emblem of the Este family.
