| Beschrijving keerzijde | Reverse presents a full-length frontal figure of Christ standing, nimbed with a cruciform halo, robed in a long garment, with the right hand raised in benediction and the left hand holding a book of the Gospels. The figure is surrounded by a circle of eight-pointed stars set within a beaded inner border, all enclosed by the peripheral Latin legend. The style is consistent with the Venetian ducal iconographic tradition adapted for Hospitaller coinage. The overall design conveys the religious mandate of the Order and its crusading mission. |

Juan de Homedes served as Grand Master through one of the Order's most precarious decades — the 1540s saw repeated Ottoman pressure in the eastern Mediterranean following the catastrophic loss of Rhodes in 1522, and the Knights were still consolidating their grip on Malta, granted by Charles V only in 1530. The zecchino continued the Venetian ducat standard the Order had maintained since its Rhodian issues, a deliberate policy of monetary credibility with Levantine trading partners.
Fr#4 is among the scarcer Grand Master issues of the 16th century by surviving population.
