| Reverse description | Full-length standing figure of St. John the Baptist facing front, draped in a camel-hair mantle, cradling the Agnus Dei (Lamb of God) in his left arm while his right hand is raised in a gesture of blessing or pointing. The figure is set within a beaded inner circle, with the Latin legend running in the outer margin. The bold, high-relief rendering of the saint is consistent with mid-sixteenth-century Silesian ecclesiastical die-cutting traditions. |
