| Obverse description | The quartered shield of the Grand Master Pietro del Monte occupies the central field, displaying the arms of the Order of Saint John — a white eight-pointed cross on a plain ground — impaled with the personal arms of the Grand Master, all enclosed within a dotted inner circle. The heraldic composition is rendered in the angular, stylised manner typical of hammered coinage of the period. A circular Latin legend surrounds the shield, reading from a cross patée used as a stop. |
