| Reverse description | Central field displays the cross of the Order of St. John, rendered as a bold quartered cross within a shield or plain field. The surrounding circular Latin legend reads S • IOANES • BAPT : ORA PRO NOBIS, invoking Saint John the Baptist as patron of the Order. The design is typical of the hammered silver coinage produced under the Grand Masters of Malta, with a somewhat irregular flan consistent with hand-struck production. The lettering is rendered in a Gothic-influenced style common to Maltese issues of this period. |
