| Reverse description | Two full-length figures occupy the central field: at left, St. John the Baptist, depicted nimbed and clad in a camel-skin garment, standing and extending his right hand; at right, the Grand Master, shown kneeling in armour with a plumed helmet, receiving from the saint a banner bearing the cross of the Order. The composition is rendered in high relief in a Baroque figurative style. The legend PIETATE VINCES (By piety thou shalt conquer) is distributed to the left and right within a beaded border. |
