Reverse description Two clasped hands (dextrarum iunctio) depicted in the centre of the field within a beaded inner circle, symbolising faith and trust. The date 1566 appears above the hands in the upper field, and the value numeral X (denoting 10 Grani) is placed below. The outer legend encircles the beaded border. The composition and motto are consistent with the devotional and political symbolism favoured by the Knights Hospitaller coinage of this period.
