| Reverse description | The reverse field displays a prominent heraldic cross, consistent with the Latin cross type employed on Hospitaller copper issues of this period, struck in bold relief on the roughly shaped copper flan. The surrounding circular Latin legend reads +HOSPITAL HIERVSALEM, referencing the ancient title of the Order of Saint John of Jerusalem. The field surface is characteristically granular and uneven, reflecting the hammered production technique and the oxidised patina typical of circulated copper granos. No additional devices or mint marks are visible in the field. |
