| Reverse description | A large ornate cross with flared, foliate terminals occupies the central field, its arms embellished with curling acanthus-like foliage and notched or hollowed compartments, creating a decorative interlaced effect. The date 1790 appears in the upper field between two star-shaped stops, and the Latin motto SUUM CUIQUE is distributed in the remaining quadrants of the legend. The entire design is surrounded by a fine toothed border. |
