| 正面描述 | Central shield bearing the quartered coat of arms of Grand Master Jean de Vallette, depicting a gyrfalcon in the first and fourth quarters and a lion in the second and third quarters, all within a beaded inner circle. A crown or decorative element surmounts the shield, with the surrounding legend partially visible around the coin's irregular flan. The overall style is consistent with crude hammered coinage typical of sixteenth-century Mediterranean minor issues. |

Jean de Vallette governed the Order during one of the most consequential decades in Mediterranean history, and the Piccolo copper coinage served the daily transactional needs of the Hospitaller community on Malta. The Great Siege of 1565 — in which an Ottoman force estimated at 40,000 men failed to dislodge fewer than 700 Knights and several thousand Maltese soldiers — was fought entirely within the span of this coin's production years.
The Order's copper issues of this period are poorly documented in terms of precise annual output, and Restelli remains the primary specialized reference for attributing them.
