| Reverse description | Large Gothic letter 'T' (for Trivulzio) displayed prominently at center within a plain inner circle, rendered in an ornate Gothic blackletter style. The surrounding circular legend in Latin reads MAR · VIGLE · ET · CASTRI · NOVI · C · M, referencing the lord's titles as Marquess of Vigevano and Castelnovo, separated by decorative stops. The overall design is characteristic of northern Italian Renaissance feudal coinage of the early sixteenth century. |
