| Reverse description | A centrally placed eight-pointed Maltese cross in raised relief, surrounded by a ring of small heart-shaped or pellet ornaments arranged in a circle within a raised inner border, all contained within the irregular flan. The bold, angular cross arms are characteristic of the iconography of the Knights Hospitaller, and the decorative pellet ring accentuates the heraldic simplicity of the design. |
