| Reverse description | An ornate foliated cross occupies the central field, its arms elaborately decorated with foliage and floral terminals in the Renaissance manner typical of Italian hammered coinage of the sixteenth century. Small decorative devices appear in the four angles of the cross. The surrounding circular legend SOLI DEO HONOR ET GLORI — a Calvinist-influenced motto meaning 'To God alone be honor and glory' — runs along the entire periphery within a beaded border. |
