Reverse description A large crucifix dominates the central field, with the corpus of Christ depicted in fine relief and the titulus INRI inscribed at the top of the cross. The date 1659 is divided by the vertical shaft of the cross, with the digits appearing in the lower quarters of the field. Two concentric circular Latin legends surround the design, the inner legend invoking divine protection and the outer bearing a devotional inscription referencing the miraculous cross of Isenach.
