Reverse description A rampant lion leaps to the left in bold relief, occupying the central field. The Wignacourt countermark — applied by the Order of Malta during the Grand Mastership of Alof de Wignacourt (1601–1622) — appears between the lion's legs and is typically accompanied by a test cut, a customary authentication mark found on counterstamped host coins. The Latin legend encircles the design, invoking divine protection. The overall execution reflects the standard Dutch Leeuwendaalder type widely circulated throughout the Mediterranean.
